In the third video in a series they call "Beneath the Surface", some of the team on Tomb Raider: Underworld get together to explain to you the new moves our lovely heroine has this time around. Titled ‘What Could Lara Do?’, we see Creative Director Eric Lindstrom, Lead Animator Primo Navidad and Lead Character Artist Kam Yu discuss not only the moves themselves, but why they're there. Admittedly, at first I'd figured this was just another 'show off new features, people like new features' video, but here they really explain why the moves are necessary, as part of their mission to make Lara's ability set more believable and realistic.

Tomb Raider: Underworld is due November 18 in North America and November 21 in Europe.
