Guide Lara Croft through the 'God of Thunder' section of Tomb Raider: Underworld. Learn to defeat mercenaries, navigate the ship, and survive its sinking.

Alright, let's tackle the 'God of Thunder' part of Tomb Raider: Underworld. It's a bit of a combat-heavy section on a ship, so get ready!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start by jumping onto an anchor. From there, climb up the chain until you reach the deck.
  2. 2
    As soon as you're on the deck, men will start patrolling below. Before you go down, grab the healthpack that looks like a briefcase – keep an eye out for more of these, they're super useful.
  3. 3
    Head down to the deck and get your weapons ready. There are three mercenaries patrolling between the crates. Take them out quietly if you can.
  4. 4
    Look for a small blue box; you can use this to climb onto the taller crates. From this vantage point, you should be able to pick off the mercenary on the upper deck. Just a heads-up, you can't stand on the 'Natla' boxes because they're breakable.
  5. 5
    Once you're on the upper deck, go either left or right. Pull out a rifle or a weapon with a quick firing rate, as there are quite a few mercenaries to deal with. Keep moving to dodge their attacks, and don't hesitate to throw a grenade if things get hairy.
  6. 6
    After you've cleared the area, make your way down to the helipad. There might be a few more guys lurking around, so take them out.
  7. 7
    Find the stairs leading down and follow the path. You'll run into more mercenaries, so deal with them.
  8. 8
    Once they're down, head through the door into the main part of the boat. Be cautious, as there's a mercenary hiding behind the boxes right in front of you.
  9. 9
    The next section is pretty straightforward. Just keep moving forward, taking out anyone in your path.
  10. 10
    Eventually, you'll meet up with the Irish man. Unfortunately, he doesn't stick around and ends up blowing up a fuel tank, which causes the ship to start sinking. This might feel a bit like that level in TR5, right?
  11. 11
    Keep moving forward; don't worry too much about any remaining mercenaries. Just keep going until you reunite with another familiar face.
Tips
  • Always keep an eye out for those briefcase-shaped healthpacks; they can save you in a pinch.
  • Utilize the crates for cover and to get a better angle on enemies.
  • Don't be afraid to use grenades when you're surrounded or facing a tough group.
  • Be aware of breakable boxes ('Natla' boxes) and avoid standing on them.
  • The boat section can get hectic, so keep Lara moving to avoid enemy fire.
