Lara Croft Go Goes on Sale in Honor of New ’Mirror of Spirits’ Expansion

Released by Square Enix in August 2015 as a spiritual successor to Hitman Go, Lara Croft Go has you controlling the titular tomb-raiding archaeologist-adventurer like a piece on a board to navigate challenging spatial puzzles set in the ancient ruins of a lost civilization.

Complemented by stunning graphics and mesmerizing sounds, the brainteasing gameplay is not only about making your way around fixed and tight spaces, but also about collecting artifacts and surviving close encounters with deadly traps and monstrous creatures, with the ultimate goal of uncovering the myth of the Queen of Venom. Take a look at the launch trailer for Lara Croft Go:

Just three months after its launch, Lara Croft Go was updated with its “Shard of Life” expansion, which brought 26 new puzzles and a new mechanic, among others. Now, the game’s latest expansion is here in the form of the new “Mirror of Spirits” story chapter.

Developed by Square Enix Montréal in collaboration with the Montréal indie studio KO_OP, “Mirror of Spirits” features 25 new puzzles and three new mechanics, along with a new set of achievements, trophies, and more, in a setting heavily inspired by Croft Manor and classic encounters with Lara’s doppelgänger. Check out the trailer for “Mirror of Spirits”:

But its “Mirror of Spirits” expansion is not the only thing that’s new with Lara Croft Go. There’s also the arrival of its very own iMessage app, which lets you send stickers of Lara Croft in different outfits and of some of the creatures and artifacts found in the game. Take a look:

In celebration of the release of its “Mirror of Spirits” story chapter (and to a lesser extent, the launch of its iMessage sticker app), Lara Croft Go is on limited-time sale on the App Store for only $1.99, down from its regular price of $4.99.

Note that “Mirror of Spirits” is a free expansion to players who have previously purchased the game. To new ones, your download includes all Lara Croft Go content so far, including, of course, the new “Mirror of Spirits” story chapter. So if you haven’t played this award-winning game yet, better get it now while it’s at a discount.

And if you enjoy Lara Croft Go, be sure to also check out the other games in Square Enix’s Go trilogy, Hitman Go and Deus Ex Go, both of which have also been temporarily marked down from $4.99 to $1.99.

Late last month, Orphan Black: The Game, based on the eponymous sci-fi series, was released, featuring gameplay that strongly resembles that of Square Enix’s Go games.
