Rise of the Tomb Raider

Determination: Explicit — Corruption 3

Trinity, a paramilitary order founded by the Church to kill a Byzantine prophet, hunts the player through the lost city built to protect him.

Rise of the Tomb Raider is the entry where Trinity's religious origin is the plot rather than background. The search is for the Divine Source, a relic guarded by the Deathless Ones in a hidden Byzantine city in Siberia, and the antagonist organisation is an order the series' lore traces to a Church directive to execute a miracle-working prophet for blasphemy. The player spends the game inside Byzantine Christian architecture and iconography while being hunted by the institution's modern descendants. Trinity functions as an inquisition with helicopters, which is what the Corruption category tests for.
