Rise of the Tomb Raider, as promised, got an impressive gameplay demonstration at E3 2015, with one of the developers from Crystal Dynamics performing a live runthrough of a very intense portion of the upcoming game, which launches on November 10

Rise of the Tomb Raider continues the new timeline established by the franchise's reboot a few years ago, showcasing a younger and less experienced version of series protagonist Lara Croft.

This time around, the new title takes Lara to Siberia, where she needs to survive and find new purpose.

While the actual gameplay demonstration showcased a perilous climb of an icy mountain face, the following gameplay video actually shows Lara entering a mythical environment filled with all sorts of different areas.

Rise of the Tomb Raider will launch as a timed exclusive for the Xbox One this winter holiday season, on November 10, more specifically. You can be sure that many new details, videos, and screenshots will be shared by developer Crystal Dynamics, Microsoft, and Square Enix in the following months.

A PC and PS4 debut for Rise of the Tomb Raider is expected at some point in time, probably in 2016, but right now none of the companies involved wants to share any details about its Xbox One timed exclusivity.
