5 Scrapped Video Game Endings That Didn’t Make the Final Cut

Shadow of the Tomb Raider

Recommended Videos

Users of the Tomb Raider forums uncovered something very unusual about Shadow of the Tomb Raider. It turns out that players who finished the game’s unpatched version on hardware disconnected from the internet received a completely different ending –one the developers never intended anyone to see.

This ending, which is no longer present in the game, shows Lara sitting at her desk writing something down before looking at a letter on her desk. Who wrote said letter? Jacqueline Natla. While we don’t get to find out what the letter says, it’s important to note that this is the first mention of the famed Tomb Raider villain since the series’ 2013 reboot.

Furthermore, there’s also a camera pan that gives players a glimpse of Lara’s iconic dual pistols, another Tomb Raider mainstay we haven’t seen in this series reboot. This might have been a hint to the series’ future, but now that it’s removed, there’s really no saying what’s next.
