Tomb Raider: Lara Croft is back minus curves and braid

Gun-toting adventurer Lara Croft is back in the latest Tomb Raider game to fight for new players but she comes gadget-free, without the improbable curves and trademark braid, and with an adults-only rating.

Development company Crystal Dynamics, has stripped Croft of her previous history in the game published by Japan's Square Enix, and reinvented her as a 21-year-old novice with no experience of raiding tombs, climbing or shooting.

Instead of the confident Croft seen in previous games and in the two movies with Angelina Jolie, the first Tomb Raider game in three years begins with the archaeologist as a terrified woman who is unsure of her footing but is desperate to survive.
