The Tomb Raider Times (#1) - English version

LONDON REVEAL EVENT
The London reveal event for Shadow of the Tomb Raider took place on April 26th and the official start was scheduled for
17:00. The administrators were allowed to enter a little earlier, at 16:00. The chosen venue was called The Welsh Chapel,
which address you can find on the side of this page. The Chaple is easy to miss, being squeezed betwen other buildings,
but is pretty impressive in its antiquity and beatiful architecture. Upon entering the central part of the building, you find
yourself immersed in classic british architecture with its typical charm, which will surely remind every Tomb Raider fan of
the Croft Manor.

We entered the central area and were blown away by the amount of detail that was put in arranging
and decorating the venue – as if we truly entered a piece of jungle hidden in an abandoned old place.
All was underlined by music from the upcoming game, very jungle inspired mixed with the main tune
of the reboot series, which fitted the atmosphere very well. In the spotlight was a revolving pyramid
full of plants, which looked amazing in contrast with the rocks and bricks of the walls. Just wonderful,
take a look at the photos!
