Guide Lara Croft through the collapsing tomb in Rise of the Tomb Raider's Near Escape. Learn how to survive the avalanche and reach safety.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    As soon as you regain control, you'll be in a combat situation. Shoot the two enemies directly in front of you.
  2. 2
    Immediately after, you'll be in a limited-time scenario. The edges of your screen will start to get dark and dirty, indicating the cave-in. If this darkness spreads too far, Lara will die, so it's crucial to keep moving and jumping through the next section. Sprint where possible.
  3. 3
    Quickly traverse the room to the exit. The path is fairly linear, but you'll encounter collapsing floors and toppling pillars.
  4. 4
    You'll need to ride some of these toppling pillars and dodge lots of falling debris. Just keep to the path, stick your jumps, and sprint where possible to reach the exit safely.
  5. 5
    A scene will play, transitioning you back to Siberia.
Tips
  • The key to this section is constant forward momentum. Don't stop to look around; just keep moving towards the exit.
  • Pay attention to the screen effects indicating the cave-in's progress. If it starts to cover too much of your screen, you're running out of time.
  • Don't be afraid to use the sprint button liberally. It's essential for covering ground quickly.
  • The game guides you well here, so focus on executing the jumps and movements as prompted.
