    "One of the things that was really important for us is to really explore the inner conflict or what she's experiencing ... we needed to have something that was familiar to her that she can trust," said Senior Game Director, Daniel Chayer-Bisson.

    "She's definitely less vulnerable than she's ever been. In Tomb Raider 2013 she was thrown into this situation where she was being very reactive," Chris Johnston, brand manager at Crystal Dynamics, in an earlier interview with GamesBeat.

So very early on when we were trying to figure out what is jungle stealth combat, it's not just waiting in a tree forever - you will be found, right? So we try to create challenges, enemies, ingredients that encourage the player to move."
