It's all we wished we have but nothing we wanted.
I really like it but it's super barebones, feels like a techdemo more than an actual game.

EDIT: 4/25/2026:

Dev finally acknowledged the issue and promised immediate fixes and follow up of the script info below:

I'll keep an eye on the evolution of the translation.
------------

The english translation is total disrespect to the whole genre. the localization team did a terrible job, inserted political phrases and trans wording.

They killed references to rance, haruhi, digimon 03, nhk, shobon, kanon, nnd, steins;gate and more just because the translator is 25 years old and never watched any anime.

Some other famous examples:

A simple word like "YAMERO (やめろ)" being turned into "END FASCISM"
A FSN/FGO reference "令呪で縛らないから" turned into "i will NEVER be victimized under fascism again" the line literally says Command Spell
"キーー" to "okay white knight -_-"
"新時代キタ" to "tech bros are So Gross"
" ふーん？" to "vry inch resting..."
"がははは、グッドだ！" to "ROFLMAO DESERVED!"
"インフルエンサーっていつもそうですね……！" to "just like influenza lolz!" from influencers to influenza????
"用法・用量を守ってね" to "ffs take ur meds"
"急すぎじゃない！？" to "ARE THEY CRACKHEADS??!?"
"俺も精神鍛錬するか" to "YO WTF I WANNA GET ISEKAIED!" what the hell does isekai have to do with the original statement?
And one of the worst ones: taking something every person who browsed niconicodouga would have seen scrolling across the screen "ｷﾀ―――(ﾟ∀ﾟ)―――― !" and then turning it into "XD XD XD XD XD XD"


The awful localization only applies to english, so feel free to play in other languages.

an "okay" left4dead alternative, better than back4blood, unfortunately it's poisoned by the woke agenda, so it's unbearable to enjoy.

woke piece of trash

More than 50 issues following TR I-III Remastered update.
Here's a list of known issues following March 12th's update for TR I-III Remastered. I never imagined that the list would be so long.

Credit to Tremolo and @coregames5 via X.

- Weapon shortcuts on controller behave strangely.

- City level: The Infada Stone in my inventory is named The Hand of Rathmore.

- I skipped a few levels in The Lost Artifact to see if by chance The Hand of Rathmore is named Infada Stone. I went to It's a Madhouse! level. It's got the correct name, but the artefact name is in white font rather than the brownish one that all other artefacts and items are using.

- Dragon's Lair: the dragon's head doesn't turn towards Lara when he's shooting fire at her. I'm unsure if this bug affects other enemies as well.

- Knifethrowers without knife.

- Final boss not triggering on Home Sweet Home.

- Yeti killing Lara animation is missing on TR2.

- Music keeps playing after Lara died.

- The old savegames can be corrupted with the new Challenge Mode update.

- Playing Egypt and I'm not sure if this is a CR-exclusive thing, but the Atlantean projectiles aren't showing up in either graphical mode. It could be because the enemy isn't supposed to spawn there, but that seems.

- Sometimes when you load a saved game the game's totally swapping all textures and all is a mess. It happened to me already twice.

- Lud's Gate: I was playing and one scubadiver didn't dive even if I stand next to him. When I came closer and touched him I died instantly.

- The Silver version of the Ahab Approved outfit does not unlock as described in the instructions.

- When you end a level and begin the next one, the outfit you were wearing changes back to the default outfit I ended Jungle in the South Pacific Outfit and when Temple Ruins began it put me back in the Classic 2 outfit when previously it would stay in the outfit Lara was wearing at the end of the previous level.

- Botched/misplaced textures randomly: https://www.tombraiderforums.com/sho...8&postcount=55
For some reason, the botched/misplaced textures "fix" temporarily the missing passport stamps bug: https://www.tombraiderforums.com/sho...4&postcount=58

- Sometimes, in Challenge Mode, the Atlantis lights in the beginning won't turn on and Lara is just stuck, the door on the left won't open either. The level needs to be restarted.

- Lost City of Tinnos: There's a gate that no longer opens, meaning you cannot progress the level or finish the game without cheating: https://x.com/CROFTAOD/status/2032878423354314898?s=20

- Home Sweet Home: the main theme music continues to play in TR2 when loading the game.

- I started the Atlantis level yesterday in Challenge Mode and the level was completely dark and in classic mode completely black.

- Occasionally the inventory is popping up when it isn't supposed to.

- There is a glitch that causes Lara's arms to "break" into folds when she slides down slopes: https://www.tombraiderforums.com/sho...7&postcount=70

- TR3's snakes are glitched: https://www.tombraiderforums.com/sho...0&postcount=72

- Sleeping with the Fishes: This level is completely blocked after 2/3's into the level. The random enemy inside the underwater office no longer open the gate in CR.

- Highland Fling: The first secret with the crowbar is completely inaccessible.

- Highland Fling: The metal bars area with the big medpack is unreachable (Left side of the bridge).

- I get locked in Opera House level in Challenge Mode, because the death animation won't play when the chinese warrior with 2 spears kills Lara. The passport won't open, she stops moving and you can't access the menu. You have to close the game and restart.

- The flamethrowers in TR2 seem to have infinite range now and the flames don't appear in Classic Mode. Not sure if this is Challenge Mode only or the main game does it too but it's a pain. Seem fine in TR2 Gold regular mode so maybe a Challenge Mode thing?

- The FMV sequence in Lara's Home (TR1) no longer plays.

- The main menu music does not cut out during loading screens or when starting a level where there is no background music (for example, Venice level on TR2, Lara's Home on TR3), causing the main menu music to play during gameplay.

- The English subtitles, and perhaps those in other languages as well, freeze and do not disappear from the screen.

- The game occasionally crashes randomly in NG (Steam version).

- Some traps (stakes with skeleton in Coastal Village, or lasers in High Security Compound and Area 51) in TR3 do not harm Lara on NG.

- You can complete the level in Home Sweet Home (TR2) without eliminating all the enemies.

- Loading a save file using one of the new outfits may glitch Lara's textures.

- Occasionally Lara will simultaneously say the sounds of healing, collecting an object, and negation on TR2 when picking up an object.

- The passport stamps are still missing.

- Lara's braid is glitched in Photo Mode and in-game. It clips into itself as it used to do in its first unpatched version from February 2024 and keeps morphing and changing while Lara's standing still.

- Sometimes some cheats will activate even if you haven't finished performing all of Lara's moves.

- The Chinese localization is messed up. A significant number of Chinese characters have been replaced with Japanese kanji, and all new text added in Patch 5 was translated by Al, resulting in inconsistencies with the original localization.

- When I die from drowning underwater, the level's ambience will become audible as soon as Lara starts her death animation. As in, I can no longer hear the muffled underwater swimming sounds and the ambience comes in.

- 40 Fathoms: Dead sharks will float on the surface of the water while still moving their bodies as if they're alive.

- My game CRASHED on its own for the first time in over 300 hours today. In 40 Fathoms, after I climbed out of the long vertical flooded corridor (the one where the Gold Secret is) and went into that room with the piles of rusted dirt, my game crashed.

- Broken shadows on the Nevada quad jump.

- Occasionally, you can hear lines from the Lara's Home tutorial from TR1 in the India level (TR3).

- There's a glitch that causes a hole on the mesh of Lara's hip to appear when crouching: https://www.tombraiderforums.com/sho...70&postcount=7

- On challenge mode: the last door on Meteorite Cavern is bugged again but it shouldn't because I killed Willard and pick up all the artifacts. In the end... the door was opened anyway minutes after I click on the button. Really confusing.

- I tried to pull a block in 40 fathoms and Lara would move sideways in an angle kind of while pulling. I have never seen that before. she would also stop at far more left point then like she was starting pulling from. Also the run tilted forward bug seems to trigger easier.

- The US logo version of the menu backgrounds are not showing up anymore with the English localisation.

- Home Sweet Home: door opening sound where there wasn't before.

- The Dragon' Lair: helicopter sounds during the boss fight.

- "Outfit Unlocked" text stuck on the main menu after unlocking a Challenge Mode outfit.

Durability is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ time-sink mechanic that feels horrible.

게으른 개발자는 프로필 기능 같은 기본 기능을 완성하거나 1.0 정식 버전을 출시하는 것보다 유료 DLC 출시에만 집중하고 있다.

개발사들은 얼리 액세스 당시 "유료 DLC는 없을 것"이라고 거짓말을 했습니다. 그러고 나서 기본 게임과 거의 같은 가격으로 DLC를 판매했죠.

돈벌이에만 혈안이 된 개발자다.

They didn't even bothered to test it! NOBODY PLAYTESTED IT HOLY COW

Dev abandoned this game with dozens of breaking bugs. a shame.

Permanent health lose is trash, enemy balancing is broken, melee is nerfed to hell. stage 4 and 5 are impossible without a team of +5 due to poor balancing. trash and piece of ♥♥♥♥ game.
