Square Enix has released today a developer diary video for the first downloadable content of Shadow of the Tomb Raider titled ‘The Forge’, which is scheduled to be released on November 13.
Fans who own the Season Pass for $29.99 will be getting the first of the seven planned DLC for free, or $4.99 if purchased individually.
According to Square Enix, the upcoming The Forge DLC will put Lara in the lava-flooded forge as she uncovers the secrets of Kuwag Yaku. This new adventure of Lara is the first of the seven monthly downloadable content that Square Enix has promised. Players can look forward for more challenging tombs in the upcoming DLCs, as well as new co-op experiences, weapons, outfits, and more.
Here’s an overview of the DLC via Square Enix:
In “The Forge,” Lara must brave the lava-flooded Forge of the fallen gods to uncover the secrets of Kuwaq Yaku. Throughout her journey, Lara will uncover details about a friend’s ancient legacy, and overcome a danger long thought to be lost in flame. “The Forge” delivers a brand-new challenge tomb, playable in both solo and co-op. Players who complete the challenge tomb will be rewarded with the Grenadier skill, Brocken outfit, and Umbrage 3-80 weapon.
A completely new adventure, “The Forge” is the first of seven monthly downloadable content adventures available through the Season Pass, providing players with an abundance of new content, challenge tombs, co-op experiences, weapons and outfits, Score Attack and Time Attack modes, and additional narrative side missions.
Lara Croft has mastered an unforgiving jungle, explored vast landscapes filled with tombs, and battled Trinity for the fate of Humanity, all set against the backdrop of the Maya apocalypse. Yet even more adventures await in the hidden City of Paititi. New mysteries and challenges will arise, friendships and rivalries will deepen, and above all, new tombs will be discovered in a series of downloadable contents that expand the world of Shadow of the Tomb Raider.
Despite the game receiving mediocre reviews when it launches a month ago, Square Enix still fulfills its promise in delivering all seven DLCs on a monthly basis. Fans of Lara Croft can expect more adventures in the months to come.
