RELEASE NOTES

The unstoppable Lara Croft is back in Tomb Raider II, combining the
classic gameplay of Tomb Raider with new moves, weapons, puzzles, and
much more! Join Lara as she searches for The Dagger of Xian: an artifact
hidden in an ancient Emperor's palace within the Great Wall of China.
Legend has it that whoever drives the Dagger of Xian into their heart,
acquires the power of the Dragon.
Three parties covet this dagger -- but for entirely different reasons.
Lara Croft, forever the adventurer, is one of these. On her travels she
will encounter the other two
The game begins at The Great Wall of China as Lara searches for the
doors to the Emperor's palace. As the doors open, the plot un-folds
sending Lara to the far off locations of Venice, Tibet and a sunken ship
in search of clues.
