Kukulkan – City of the Serpent is the final destination in Shadow of the Tomb Raider’s storyline. This page will inform you if it’s feasible to go back to Kukulkan in the later stages of the game and whether you can continue to play after completing the main story.
During the main mission of City of the Serpent, Lara must visit Kukulkan and converse with Etzli at the rebels’ hideout in the Hidden City. Here are some crucial points to remember from this conversation:
- Once you tell Etzli that you’re ready, it’s a one-way street. During the final mission, you can’t go back to previously visited locations or complete additional activities. Once you reach Kukulkan, you must complete the final mission.
- You can only visit Kukulkan once. After you complete the main storyline, you can’t go back there. Fortunately, this isn’t a problem since Kukulkan doesn’t have any optional activities or secrets. There’s only one campsite there, which you can’t miss.
- You don’t have to delay your visit to Kukulkan until later. Even after completing the main story, Lara can reach all the secrets, complete all the challenges, and finish all the side missions.
After finishing the game, you’ll receive notifications about the new available options:
- Continue your current playthrough to find secrets and complete optional activities such as challenges and side quests. This is the recommended option if you want to achieve 100% completion.
- Start a new campaign in New Game Plus mode. Choose this option if you want to start the game from the beginning again. You keep your equipment and weapons but lose your progress.
