It is part of the long-running Tomb Raider video game series.

Five DLC's have been released for the game. Three of them add new maps and challenges, the other two add new playable characters; Raziel and Kain (from the Legacy of Kain series) and the infamous criminal duo, Kane and Lynch from the game Kane & Lynch: Dead Men, which was also published by Square Enix.

The following weapons can be seen in the game Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light:

Overview

All weapons, except the USP Matches and the spear use the same ammunition pool, represented by a blue bar. Each weapons has a set ammo consumption rate. It is also possible to increase the bar by picking up "Ammo Powerups". Certain Artifacts grant ammo regeneration ability, increased damage, rate of fire or spread radius.

Handguns

Heckler & Koch USP Match

Akimbo Heckler & Koch USP Matches are the default weapons of Lara (or other characters, depending on the DLC's the player has purchased) in the game. During the cut-scenes the pistols are modeled with incorrect slide-mounted safeties, like in the other Tomb Raider video games, however the inventory icon shows it correctly. The USP's have unlimited ammunition. Referred to as "Handguns".

"What the ****!?"
Kane gets ambushed by a giant behemoth. Note incorrect slide mounted safety on the USP Match.

"First Model" CZ 75

Dual "First Model" CZ 75 pistols appear in the game as "Automatic Pistols". The name can be confusing since ALL weapons fire continuously if the fire key is held. Does not pack much power, but consumes ammo really slowly.
