Although the story arc isn't anything to get excited about, this is one of the better DLCs to have come out for Shadow of the Tomb Raider. The Price of Survival features just enough variety with enemies and puzzles to make it worth a chance on its own, but still doesn't quite make the full season pass tempting enough.

"The Price of Survival" has more story content than the previous DLCs, because of the inclusion of puzzles. However, it is weak. The tomb in question, even with a puzzle that seems to be challenging at first glance, is also dull and the shortest available so far via DLC.
Shadow of the Tomb Raider: The Price of Survival balances some interesting puzzles with combative segments that offer choice.
The Price of Survival is by far the most impressive DLC pack yet as it features multiple challenging and visually interesting puzzles that are wrapped in a plot which actually integrates into the main story impressively well.
