Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis gives players four tombs to tackle in any order when Lara reaches Greece. The reworked St. Francis’ Folly is larger, more vertical, and more interconnected than the original area, with harder puzzles and story discoveries tied to Atlantis.
Crystal Dynamics showed the new Greece area on September 7. The official update explains the structure without giving away puzzle solutions, so players now know how the level opens up while its exact routes, rewards, and encounters remain for the game.

How the four-tomb choice works
Early in Greece, the path splits into four self-contained tombs. Players choose the order rather than following one fixed sequence. Each tomb has a separate identity, dangers, and rewards, so the same area can begin differently depending on the first route selected.
The official feature does not name all four tombs or explain what each reward does. It also does not say whether the order changes dialogue, enemy placement, later puzzles, or the ending. The confirmed choice is about route order; broader consequences have not been detailed.
That distinction matters for anyone trying to plan a first run. There is no confirmed best order yet, and any route ranking published before the game is available would be based on incomplete information.
What changed in St. Francis’ Folly
St. Francis’ Folly returns as a tall central vault with four chambers dedicated to Greek champions. Crystal Dynamics kept the scale of the original location, then extended that feeling across a hidden oasis filled with ruins.
The new version uses more height and more connected paths. Lara can see spaces above and below her instead of moving through a flat chain of rooms. The layout asks the player to read the whole chamber and work out how platforms, openings, and traversal points connect.
The team says the most difficult design debate was how intricate to make the traversal path inside the vault. The final update confirms that the designers chose the more complex version, but it does not publish a route map or step-by-step solution.
The puzzles require more attention
Greece raises both puzzle difficulty and traversal precision. The official screenshots show multi-level chambers, narrow ledges, suspended routes, stone mechanisms, and large statues. Those images establish the scale of the spaces without revealing the correct sequence for any puzzle.
Each tomb is designed as its own challenge, so players should expect to investigate one set of hazards and mechanisms before returning to the central structure. Crystal Dynamics has not confirmed whether unfinished tombs can be left midway through or whether every tomb must be completed before the story continues.
The Greece update also withholds the full encounter list. It says memorable surprises draw from the game’s mythology, but it does not identify the creatures or show how they affect a particular puzzle. That information is still unannounced.
Greece connects the ruins to Atlantis
Greece is where Lara begins to understand a wider connection to Atlantis. The story combines historical locations and mythology, then uses discoveries in the ruins to change what Lara believes about the past.
Lara will meet familiar historical figures in the Greece level, although Crystal Dynamics has not named them. Their role is described as a new view of the past rather than a complete rewrite of real history.
The update also avoids explaining the main revelation, the exact link between Greece and Atlantis, or what Lara finds after the four tombs. Players can follow the level’s setup now without having its central answer spoiled.
Combat remains built around movement
A separate official combat breakdown describes Legacy of Atlantis as a modern third-person shooter. Lara uses her dual pistols, quick dodges, acrobatics, aim assist, and target snapping while facing animal predators and coordinated human mercenaries.
Focus Mode turns an acrobatic move into a combat advantage, and successful dodges build focus. Mercenaries can use assault rifles, shotguns, and sniper positions, while animal groups change their behavior as their numbers fall.
Those systems apply to the game as a whole. The Greece feature does not confirm which predators, mercenaries, or weapons appear inside St. Francis’ Folly, so they should not be assigned to these four tombs before Crystal Dynamics shows them.
