Shadow of the Tomb Raider’s Paititi Is the Series’ Largest Hub Yet

Lara Croft Raids Tombs & Helps People Out in a New Shadow of the Tomb Raider Video

Shadow of the Tomb Raider is less than two months away from launch and a recent gameplay video showed off an expansive hidden city that players will be exploring soon in the upcoming game. The video can be viewed below.

The city is named “Paititi” and it is the largest hub world ever created for a Tomb Raider game, according to the game’s developers. Up until now, the in-game city has only ever been mentioned and briefly shown.

In the video, we see Lara Croft bartering with local shopkeepers and talking with the city’s inhabitants. The side missions feature that was introduced in the previous game, Rise of the Tomb Raider, has made its return and later in the video Lara explores a treacherous tomb filled with deadly traps.

“Players can dive into a bustling economy to barter for new outfits and weapons, interact with and learn from inhabitants to complete side missions, hunt for and harvest valuable resources, and of course discover hidden crypts and challenges tombs,” read an official press release about Paititi.
