Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered is a collection comprised of remastered versions of Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation, Tomb Raider: Chronicles and Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness (with restored cut content[1]), developed by Aspyr and Saber Interactive Russia and published by Aspyr. Much like Tomb Raider I-III Remastered, players can switch between remastered and original graphics on the fly.

Builds of the game available for download on release are not identical across all platforms and storefronts. Only the GOG.com version has working reflections in TR6 on release, matching original PC version - but may also have some technical issues not present in other versions.[2] It's expected that this will be addressed in future updates on all platforms.

    "It looks like the driver can't control filtering if the program uses glSamplerParameter. This means you will get AF 8x regardless of driver settings. The degree of filtering can be increased only by changing the game code."
