Lara’s last three adventures from Core Design play differently enough from the first trilogy that serious fans will want to check them out. However, with inconsistent visual and mechanical upgrades, and a higher overall difficulty, Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered is not a good jumping-in point for newcomers.
Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered was unlucky: the compilation includes the worst games of the original series. And it seems that Aspyr Media, as Core Design once did, didn't have enough time to finish the unfinished games.
These remasters maintain all the extra features from the previous collection – the visual improvements, 60fps + mode, photo mode and other tweaks – and ultimately are the best way to play these games, it’s just the quality of games on offer here aren’t quite as consistently good as the first collection. Aspyr have been doing a really good job with these remasters, especially the Legacy Of Kain set released at the back end of last year and shows that they can do an excellent job in bringing these classic titles back for existing fans to enjoy again but with enough modernisation so a new audience can enjoy them without losing the spirit and feel of the original releases. They didn’t really put a foot wrong with this collection – unfortunately, in the case of Angel Of Darkness, Eidos already did that all those years ago.

Es una colección de juegos muy buena e incluso me atrevo a decir que es superior el todo a los clásicos y es la mejor manera de jugarlo, el apartado artístico es perfecto, definitivamente es de las mejores remasterizaciones

The devs went so hard on these remasters. Just absolutely stunning work on IV and V... amd they did what they could with VI. They made it playable with the new controls and that's something. But with a 3 game pack, including TLR, one of the standouts of the series, there is no reason not to rate this as high as possible.

Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered continues the high quality treatment that Aspyr have previously set with Tomb Raider I-III Remstered. Despite some heavy visual overhauls and some nice additional inclusions, the truth of the matter is that these games are just not as strong as the original trilogy. Still, regardless of how you feel, it's hard to deny that Aspyr have done good work here, and these are easily the easiest and most accessible way to play some games that many ardent fans would call underappreciated or misunderstood. Just don't come out expecting them to match the heights of the original trilogy.

With this new trilogy, the entire Tomb Raider saga is now fully playable in one complete collection. However, the janky camera and clunky controls still take away from the experience a bit.

Without that sense of nostalgia, you’ll be left with a trio of games that weren’t all that good first time around, and it’s hard to imagine you’ll find them very worthwhile.

The Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered collection is the easiest way to play these games, even if only one is worth playing. I’m still not sure retrofitting Chronicles and Angel of Darkness into what feels like a tight, connected quadrilogy makes sense, but Aspyr has made experiencing The Last Revelation on modern hardware so much more intuitive, while also preserving the very dominoes that led to Core Design losing the keys to the kingdom. This is Tomb Raider’s legacy, warts and all.

Worth Playing
Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered takes a few steps forward and a few steps backward from the previous Remastered collection. The games are a little more open, so you won't get many camera issues, but the games still haven't been retuned to handle the mechanics of the modern controls. The frame rate issue when switching between graphical modes has been fixed, and there are a few new mechanics. Some previously cut content makes the games feel like there has been some evolution. The problem is that the games don't feel as good as the trio of titles that came before it. From a preservationist perspective, it's fine to have these titles in a more accessible form. If you have some nostalgia related to these titles, then you might get a kick out of replaying them with a modern lens. Those who are discovering these games for the first time will wonder what the fuss was all about.

I've played a bit of all three games already. But have settled on completing AOD first. Its runs so much smoother that the old PS2 days, and the updated AOD Lara model is so beautiful. And the modern control are so much better than how clunky it was in 2003. Lara now has a bit of speed to her. You can also alter the button layout so really customisable to what is best for you. The graphical upgrades to the last revelation really make Egypt shine. Oh and the new fire effects...Amazing!
