Opening
Lara Croft can be seen, walking in the jungle after a plane crash. She is crawling around bushes and rocks; searching for something.

"This has to be the island where I heard they have the hidden power. All the clues point to this exact location. I wonder what strange adventures lay await for me...or what dangers I will face. I am sure that this mysterious power has drawn other strong enemies who desire the power for themselves. But they have never had to deal with a genuine Tomb Raider before!"

Rival
Name: Joel & Ellie

Reason: Lara walks around the rival arena until she spots Joel and Ellie. Thinking they`re two of the hostile scavengers from the island. She tries to kill him by shooting an arrow, but Ellie notices and pushes Joel out of the way. Joel turns around as sees Lara and asks her what´s her problem. She tells them that she´s not being fooled and knows what that they´re two of the hostile scavengers. Joel & Ellie thinks that she´s being crazy and the fight begins.

Connection: Both are survivors trying to survive. For Lara Croft she's trying to survive on the island she´s stranded on. For Joel he's trying to survive the outbreak. Both also have to deal with hostile scavengers as well as supernatural. For Joel the infected and for Lara the mysterious Oni creatures. And also both promise those to save. For Lara it´s the people who were on the ship with her who has been captured by scavengers and for Joel, he promised a friend to keep Ellie safe.

Ending
Lara Croft can be seen; dirtied yet victorious while flying a plane.

"With this new power, I can explore and find more treasure! All those phony thieves can't compare to what I have gained. This is the find of the century! Where to next? Brazil? Egypt? Some unmapped island? But..first...I think I deserve a well earned vacation."

Gameplay
Lara Croft is a guerrilla fighter that focuses on hit and run tactics while maintaining distances. She runs, jumps, and hits quick but, due to this, she lacks the power behind some of the more heavier and melee oriented characters. In addition, some of her attacks have various side effects that changes her play style and offers various ways to do damage. She does lack defenses and can be combo'ed by stronger ad faster opponents. Therefore, she must focus on attacks that keep the opponents at bay while attacking quickly and effectively.
