When using the bow, press and hold Fire for a few seconds to power up a charged shot. While holding Aim, press this button to shoot. Later in the game, when you're besieged by multiple enemies, you'll need to be able to do this. If that helps, by all means use it, but I found it easier to just re-train myself to use the stick/mouse to aim. Each time you release Aim and then press it again, Lara will automatically aim at a nearby target. NOTE: There's a limited auto-aim feature if you set the combat difficulty to EASY. Then move the mouse or right stick to aim. Press and hold to draw the currently selected weapon. In these cases, just draw a two-handed weapon, like the bow, and Lara will stow the torch. Later you'll obtain gear that lets you light the torch at any time simply by pressing Interact. See the Map/Objectives section below.Īfter you've obtained the torch, stand near a fire source and hold Interact to light the torch. The map screen also contains various information about your mission status, objects found, challenges completed, etc. Press it quickly to prevent her from falling. If Lara loses her grip while climbing, with or without the axe, the Interact icon will flash on screen. Once Lara is latched on, you can release Interact and climb using the direction buttons or left stick as usual. Jump toward one of these surfaces and press Interact to sink the axe into it. Once you've obtained the climbing axe, Lara will be able to use it to scale certain climbable surfaces. Press or press and hold briefly to interact with certain objects in the environment (e.g., to light torch at a fire source, ignite objects with your torch, loot bodies, etc.) In such cases you'll see the Interact button icon appear on screen when you approach the object. (This skill can be improved with upgrades.) Release the button and continue moving to return to normal view. Press to highlight objects in the environment with which Lara can interact and to show the current Objective Beacon, a beam of light shining down from the sky indicating where you need to go next. When Lara enters a tunnel or moves under a low ledge, she crouches automatically. Note: There is no separate control for crouch in the single-player game. Pressing this button while near the top of a ladder or a ledge that Lara can grab makes her drop and hang on.

This skill can be improved in various ways with unlocked upgrades. These are described briefly under Combat below and in more detail in the walkthrough. Later in the game, You'll unlock the ability to roll after falling to reduce injury.Ĭertain enemies are more easily defeated using dodge maneuvers. Tap this button twice while moving to roll along the ground. Press this button while moving in a direction to scramble along the ground or to dodge an enemy attack.

To scale a wall slightly higher than Lara's head, stand facing it and tap Jump twice. If there's a ledge or handhold nearby, Lara will grab it automatically. Press Jump along with a direction to jump that way. Console players: Press lightly on the control stick to walk press firmly to run. Keyboard: Hold Ctrl and press direction keys/buttons to walk. Meanwhile, here's a great video guide to multiplayer by SyncingShip. If you would like to take on this project, I will gladly consider hosting it here. I will not be doing a multiplayer guide for this game. Check the in-game controls menu for details. Apparently the controls are similar to the single-player with a few minor exceptions, such as crouch, sprint and roll. NOTE: I haven't played the multiplayer game yet. In addition to the general, spoiler-free information on this page, detailed lists of Skill, Gear and Weapon Upgrades, Collectible Items, Unlockable Extras, Outfits/Skins and Other DLC, Steam and Xbox Achievements, PlayStation Trophies, and my Guide to 100% Completion are on separate pages.
