Tomb Raider received much acclaim from critics, who praised the graphics, the gameplay and Camilla Luddington’s performance as Lara with many critics agreeing that the game is a solid and much needed reboot of the franchise. Much criticism went to the addition of the multiplayer which many felt was unnecessary. Tomb Raider went on to sell one million copies in forty-eight hours of its release, and has sold 3.4 million copies worldwide so far. (Wikipedia).
We first test at 1080p with the Ultimate profile enabled.
Performance at 1080p is very good, almost hitting an average of 60 frames per second. Performance is shown to fall between the desktop Sapphire R9 285 Dual X, and Asus GTX960 Strix OC Edition.
We decided to include a Tomb Raider test at Ultra HD 4K and dropped image quality settings to the ‘Normal' preset.
This proves that if you are willing to drop the image quality settings – some engines will be playable via the GTX970m at 4K resolutions. The game is playable, but the texture quality looked a lot worse than Tomb Raider running at 1080p with image quality settings maxed out. We will stick to 1080p for this one.
