Rise of the Tomb Raider Endurance Mode DLC challenges you to survive the elements

If you're up for a new challenge in Rise of the Tomb Raider, the Endurance Mode DLC, which pits Laura against the elements, is now available to purchase. Endurance Mode is very much a struggle to survive, as you must collect and craft the necessary tools to survive against the cold, stave off hunger, and more. From the description:

Alone and in the wild, Lara must scrounge, scavenge, craft and survive the harsh elements by day, as well as lethal threats from enemies, both man and beast, by night. This is her ultimate woman-versus-wild test to push the limits of how long she can survive on her own in sprawling, unforgiving landscapes. Fire takes fuel, cold kills the unprepared, food restores health, but everything must be caught, collected, or crafted. You start with nothing and must find everything.

The DLC pack also lets you compete against your friends for the longest survival time on leaderboards, and includes a new outfit and weapon for Laura.

If you're interested in checking the DLC out, you can grab it for $10 at the link below. Endurance Mode is also included with the Rise of the Tomb Raider Season Pass, which you can snag for $30.

  • Sounds good. Will be checking thi out.
  • Sounds like a good twist on the usual survival style modes in other games.
  • Interesting, maybe...
  • Laura??
  • I know who Lara is but who's this Laura character?
  • I'm enjoying tomb raider, but this isn't a good deal in my opinion. Horde mode and Firefight were included free with their games.
  • Don't Starve? :) Posted via the Windows Central App for Android
  • Horde and firefight in what games?
  • Horde - Gears of war 2/3; Firefight - Halo 3 odst/Reach. Both good fun, I've been playing horde for years.
  • Sounds like a fun time. Just wish I could afford it right now.
  • I bought the season pass like a month or so ago... been waiting forever for this. It is super challenging and there has been only 1 person to make it to 10 days. I have made it to 5, really no noticeable differences in the difficulty levels at all.
