There are a lot of Easter Eggs in the Blood Ties DLC of Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration. Unlike the Easter Eggs found in the previous games these are mostly references to the earlier games.

List of Easter Eggs

  • Manor Address
The manor address found on the eviction notice Lara receives does not exist in reality, the zip code however is the same as for the Hatfield House.
In the document Little Angel Winston mentions Lara pulling a prank on him, locking him in the walk-in freezer.
  • Venice music
The Old Record Player in the Library plays a tune familiar to those that played in Tomb Raider II; when Lara climbs the bookshelves while the music is playing it's very reminiscent of those Venice levels where she also visited a library. Also, there was a similar phonograph on Yamatai that played an eerie Japanese tune.
A stuffed T-Rex is located behind the desk in the manor's library; Lara had several run-ins with this type of dinosaur, e.g. in Tomb Raider, Tomb Raider II, Tomb Raider III, and Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary, and most recently in Lara Croft: Relic Run and Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris.
An Ankh, that looks a lot like it came from The Last Revelation, can be found in the basement of Croft Manor.
A famous artist and author mentioned in the first movie.
Title of a side-scroller Tomb Raider game for Mobile Phones.
In Tomb Raider Legend Lara finds Lancelot's Shield and the other Knights of the Round Table.
The statue is missing its head which Lara took as a child in the Reboot Comic Lost and Found, Issue #9, centre pages.
The Secrets in Croft Manor of Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legend also depicted the Croft Family Crest, although they were only similar in shape and not identical.
A Relic that can be found in the vault linked to the Temple of Xian, a Tomb Raider II location. In this game Stone Dragons of a different shape served as secrets, among them a jade one.
One of the door codes that opens Lord Croft's Secret Vault; 14 February is Lara's birthday.
  • Ticking Clocks
Throughout the manor there are quite a few clocks ticking away, which is a little reminiscent of the first movie where Lara wakes up to the ticking of a clock hidden under the stairs.
When Lara turns on the blacklight, symbols appear all over the walls; the largest one is reminiscent the symbol found in The Angel of Darkness.
Another relic, this time located in the Family Crypt; the secrets in Tomb Raider Chronicles were roses.
Relic in the study after completing the game, a nod to Lara's classic weapons; also these seem to be the two weapons she acquired after Roth's death.
Another Relic in the study after completing the game; this is actually the artefact found in the Rise of the Tomb Raider base game.
Once again, a Relic located in the study after completing the game; this one seems like a relic from Yamatai.
