Shadow Of The Tomb Raider Fast Travel Unavailable
The Tomb Raider series has been a popular video game franchise for over two decades. It follows the adventures of Lara Croft, an archaeologist and adventurer who travels the world, uncovering ancient artifacts and uncovering the mysteries of forgotten civilizations.
Shadow of the Tomb Raider is the latest installment in the series, released in September 2018. The game follows Lara as she races to prevent a Mayan apocalypse while navigating treacherous landscapes and outsmarting dangerous foes. However, one issue that players have encountered is the inability to use fast travel in certain areas of the game.
What is Fast Travel?
Fast travel is a feature that allows players to instantly teleport to previously visited locations in the game world. It is a useful tool for players who need to backtrack to a certain area to complete missions or gather resources. For example, if a player needs to return to a tomb they previously explored to collect a missing artifact, they can use fast travel to get there quickly without having to navigate through the entire game map again.
Why is Fast Travel Unavailable?
Many players have reported that fast travel is unavailable in certain areas of the game, specifically in challenge tombs. Challenge tombs are optional areas that players can explore to find hidden treasures and collectibles. However, due to a glitch in the game, fast travel is not available in these areas.
The glitch has been reported on various gaming forums and social media platforms, with players expressing frustration and disappointment over the issue. Some players have even reported losing progress in the game because they had to restart from a previous save point after being unable to fast travel out of a challenge tomb.
Is there a Solution?
Developers Eidos Montreal and Crystal Dynamics have acknowledged the issue and have released a patch to fix the fast travel glitch in challenge tombs. Players who have encountered the issue can download the patch to ensure that fast travel is available in all areas of the game.
Players who have already encountered the issue and lost progress in the game may need to manually restart from a previous save point, as the patch does not restore lost progress. However, the patch should prevent the issue from occurring again in the future.
Final Thoughts
Fast travel is a valuable tool for players in Shadow of the Tomb Raider, allowing them to quickly navigate the vast game world and complete missions efficiently. The fast travel glitch in challenge tombs has been a frustrating issue for many players, but with the release of the patch, the issue should now be resolved. As always, players are encouraged to keep their games up to date to ensure they have the best possible gaming experience.
