Expect to spend over 30 hours with Rise of the Tomb Raider if you want to see everything it has to offer.

That's according to Crystal Dynamics lead designer Mike Brinker, who also says running straight through the game could take up to 20 hours.

"Expect to spend around 30 - 40 hours getting everything done. This is gathering every weapons, ability and completing every side quest. It all comes down to how you want to play through the game," Brinker said in an interview with PixelVulture.

"Running through the game will take you around 15 – 20 hours. So expect double the play time collecting everything and exploring every secret tomb."

He added: "In terms of scale, all our hub spaces, the areas that allow you to explore and choose your own way to play, have been increased by three time the size.

"So there will be lots more to see and do in each area of the game too. We have more challenge tombs, crypts, caves, and a bunch of extra things to do like the side missions for the Remnant people, and the tomb guardians."

The sequel to the acclaimed 2013 Tomb Raider reboot promises to feature more diverse environments and larger tomb puzzles, as Lara confronts a new enemy that has been lying in the shadows.

It is set to debut on November 13 in Europe and November 10 in North America for Xbox One and Xbox 360. The game will not find its way to PC until early next year and will arrive on PlayStation 4 during the 2016 holiday period.
