Shadow of the Tomb Raider is an action-adventure video game developed by Eidos Montréal in conjunction with Crystal Dynamics and published by Square Enix. It continues the narrative from the 2013 game Tomb Raider and its sequel Rise of the Tomb Raider, and is the twelfth mainline entry in the Tomb Raider series. The game released worldwide on 14 September 2018 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Foundation Engine. We test using the Highest preset, with TAA, DX12 API.

Our penultimate game is Shadow of the Tomb Raider, which sees the RTX 3070 average over 100FPS at 1440p. This puts it 58% ahead of the RTX 2070, while it is a dead heat with the RTX 2080 Ti.

There's nothing to split between the 3070 and 2080 Ti at 4K either, as both post identical frame rates. Compared to the 2070, the Ampere GPU is still 58% faster at this resolution.
