Rise of the Tomb Raider is available from today onwards for PC courtesy of Nixxes Software and Crystal Dynamics. There’s a ton of graphical updates over the Xbox One version which have been detailed in a new video. Check it out below.

Some of the new features in the PC version include dynamic foliage, anisotropic filtering, hardware tessellation for uneven surfaces, improved LOD and ambient occlusion. That’s not including the support for 60 FPS and resolutions up to 4K which is sumptuous (for those who have the hardware to run it).

PC users will also be getting the Baba Yaga: The Temple of the Witch DLC which recently released for Xbox One and Xbox 360. This adds three more hours of gameplay along with a new bow and outfit for Lara Croft.
