How to unlock the Tomb Raider achievement in Rise of the Tomb Raider - Definitive Guide
I just finished it, thinking that the last tomb would be the final area, but it wasn't, and came right back into the game after the credits and got the achievement after finishing the one I'd missed.
After some days and reports from the users, I think we have the riddle solved :)
One playthrough means dont start a new game, thats all. You can get this achievement after the story, on multiple savegames, all is fine when you play and solve the 9 tombs in your game without starting a new game. (thanks Tecstar70 in the comments)
Want to go totally safe but it is not necessary, then solve all 9 tombs in the game before you finish the story. At the last base camp in the Lost City area you get a warning from the Game "Point of no Return...." Dont go forward here and solve as first the 9 tombs.
Here are my 9 walkthrough videos for all tombs. The videos are including all collectibles in the tombs and are straight to point. (There is no testing or trying, real walkthroughs)
The first tomb vid is incl. the entire area collectibles in Glacial Cavern.
Ice Ship Tomb (Glacial Cavern)
Ancient Cistern (Soviet Installation)
Voice of God (Soviet Installation)
The Red Mine (Soviet Installation)
Baths of Kitezh (Geothermal Valley)
House of the Afflicted (Geothermal Valley)
The Pit of Judgment (Geothermal Valley)
Catacomb of Sacred Waters (Geothermal Valley)
Chamber of Exorcism (The Lost City)
Included in every video there are map location, name of closest base camp. And what gear you need to successfully complete the tomb. No messing around with other stuff!
Hope you find the guides helpful
ICE SHIP
RED MINE
HOUSE OF THE AFFLICTED
ANCIENT CISTERN

VOICE OF GOD
THE PIT OF JUDGMENT
CHAMBER OF EXORCISM
Dazu hab ich dieses kleine Video inkl. Erklärung gemacht ich hoffe es hilft euch
Alle 9 Tombs viel Spaß dabei :)
This isn’t a solution or walkthrough as much as it is directions to the final tomb. I wanted to do it as soon as it was available for the achievement, but in all the solutions, i couldn’t find exactly how to get there or where i had to be in the story for it to be available. Once i learned it was in the Lost City, i wondered if I could get back before the point of no return if i went there.
In order to reach the Chamber of Exorcism, you’ll need to play the story thru the Flooded Aquifer, you will come out at the new Ridgeline campsite, which is in the far north of the Geothermal Valley. At that point in the story, you’ll be able to enter in the secret passageway to begin the quest Path of the Deathless.
Follow that questline along, going thru The Orrery area, where you will need to solve the little puzzle/agility course in order to unlock and enter Kitezh, and to begin the Path of the Deadless questline.
Once you get thru the Path of the Deadless area, you’ll slide down an ice slide into the Lost City, where your Chamber of Exorcism awaits. Dont miss your new campsite down a bit to the right after you slide, Threshold of Kitezh, so you can get back to this area when you’re ready for it, without going thru all you just did again. You’ll open several campsites along the way to clean up what you missed later.
This first large area is where the tomb you’re looking for is, you dont need to do any further in the story right now if all you are looking for is the tomb.
In the upper right part of The Lost City map, you will see a cave icon. That’s where you need to go, where you will break a wall to enter into the tomb. Be careful, there’s a nasty bear in that cave.
Once you get past that wall and in there a bit, you’ll open up that new Geothermal Cavern campsite that the original poster mentioned.
So Yes, You will be able to do this tomb before you pass the point of no return in the game which is quite a bit further on in the quest line.
Hope it helps anyone else who wasnt sure where to find this last tomb.
Challenge Tombs get marked on your map automatically when they are nearby. On the world map you can see how many there are per region. The following video shows all of their locations, as well as a walkthrough for each Tomb.

There are nine "Challenge Tombs" in the game, as follows:
- Glacial Cavern - Ice Ship
- Soviet Installation - Ancient Cistern
- Soviet Installation - Voice of God
- Soviet Installation - The Red Mine
- Geothermal Valley - House of the Afflicted
- Geothermal Valley - The Pit of Judgement
- Geothermal Valley - Baths of Kitezh
- Geothermal Valley - Catacomb of Sacred Waters
- The Lost City - Chamber of Exorcism
Each tomb provides a puzzle challenge of some form, with a skill bonus as a reward for completion. If you need help with finding or completing any of the tombs, plenty of guides are available, a good example being this written guide with screenshots from GamesRadar: https://www.gamesradar.com/rise-of-th...through-guide/
You can attempt the tombs in any order and you'll unlock this achievement after completing the last of them. While I'd suggest completing the tombs as early as possible given the bonuses that they bring, for the purposes of the achievement this can be done in free-roam if you prefer.
