Rise of the Tomb Raider's third and final DLC pack is finally coming next week. Titled Cold Darkness Awakened, the DLC will be released for Xbox One and Windows 10 on March 29.
The Cold Darkness Awakened DLC pack marks the end of the adventure in this title for our heroine Lara Croft. With the DLC, Croft will "encounter an army of nightmarish predators." The player returns to the frozen waters where Trinity soldiers have turned into zombie-like monsters.
The description for Cold Darkness Awakened is as follows:
A decommissioned Cold War research base has been breached, unleashing a deadly affliction from its Siberian slumber. As the illness seeps into the wilderness surrounding the base, Trinity soldiers transform into bloodthirsty killers who thrive on carnage. To prevent the affliction from spreading, Lara must rely on her wits, physical agility, and crafting abilities to overcome this new enemy and shut down the decommissioned base.
Croft has previously had conflict with the ancient Trinity organization in Rise of the Tomb Raider, but never like this. A video that highlights the complete experience of the title reveals a sneak peak at the DLC, which shows our heroine mercilessly putting an end to the new versions of the soldiers.
Rise of the Tomb Raider previously released its Baba Yaga: Temple of the Witch DLC, which has the player going through a forest and facing mythical creatures. It features more supernatural elements that further enrich the story and offers cool visuals during Croft's hallucinations.
Before that, game developer Square Enix also released a new Endurance Mode where players must try to survive as long as they possibly can. They start out with nothing, so they must catch, collect and craft to make it out alive. This mode has players going against others, with the goal to be the "Ultimate Survivor" on the leaderboard.
Cold Darkness Awakened will be available on March 29 for $9.99. However, it also comes included with the Rise of the Tomb Raider Season Pass. The pass also includes the Endurance Mode and Baba Yaga: The Temple of the Witch DLC, and costs $29.99
