The Times Exclusive is a stand-alone level released only for PC in December, 1999, after the release of The Last Revelation. It was created in in conjunction with The Times newspaper, to celebrate the finding of the tomb of Tutankhamun.

Story

Sir Peter Stothard, who was The Times editor-in-chief at that time, tells Lara that another, previously hidden tomb has been found near the one of Tutankhamun. But before Lara goes there, she does some research in The Times archives.

"Time to finish what Carter started," Lara comments as she sets out to the tomb of Tutankhamun and Akhenaten, referring to of course Howard Carter, the man who discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun in the 1920's.

At the beggining of the tombs Lara will awake the spirits of Anubis and the Pharaoh in the tombs, so then Jackals will come alive and attack her.
