Lara eventually discovers the various switches needed to release the gigantic stone platform. Once past these moments, the game returns to normal, and you return to your exploration. In the case of one of these moments, Lara has about three seconds to leap from a small platform atop a column before the tentacles of the Kraken pull the column down to the ground. Instead, time slows down, and players are given a few seconds to make a decision and move out of the way of a hazard to survive. The evolution of the super action moment from previous games, players won't have a button that they'll need to hit as it pops up on screen. While Lara scales some ledges and crawled around the room, we witness what's now known as Adrenaline Moments. In fact, there will be more collectable treasures found in Underworld than Legend and Anniversary combined, so players will want to keep their eyes open for alcoves, hidden paths and other spaces that could hold surprises. But we were also told that players will be able to upload these shots via the PSN or Xbox Live so other players can see what they've done in the game or secrets that they've found. It can also be set to take timed photos, so players can create action shots of Lara in an environment. Obviously, it can be used to zoom in on areas and take quick snapshots of what is seen. While Lara has multiple paths that she could take to start with this task, the camera is an excellent tool in planning out her attack on the cephalopod. Of course, the trick would be how she would dislodge the platform to injure the Kraken. As Lara films it with a digital camera, she also discovers a potential way to get rid of the large squid: a platform hanging above its head that could possibly be dropped onto it. The tentacle does indeed belong to a gigantic Kraken sitting at the bottom of a large room, and it is rather annoyed that an intruder has entered its domain. However, Lara isn't alone in this location, as she soon discovers with a sudden crash. The demo was skipped forward about ten to twenty minutes, where Lara manages to emerge in an underground area that has been drained of water (whether this was because of something she'd done or it was originally set up like this, we weren't sure). Definitely an ominous sign, particularly because Lara would be ill-equipped to face off against a Kraken in such a confined space.įortunately, we were not forced into such a hampered battle. As Lara approaches the end of the area, a large tentacle curls up and slides through a hole in the wall, revealing a passageway. Or at least what appears to be a dead end. This is filled with debris and other large jellyfish, but is also blocked off at a dead end.
Once the axles are installed and the puzzle solved, access is granted to a new flooded passageway that can be explored.
