10 Strongest Female Characters In Video Game History

2. Lara Croft - Tomb Raider

Crystal Dynamics

Unlike all of the other entrants on this list, Lara Croft has no formal training in martial arts, gunplay, or have any supernatural abilities.

She is simply a survivor. Lara has conquered many challenges ranging from tigers, bears, and dinosaurs (oh my!), to surviving encounters with gun-toting thugs and deranged cultists.

What makes Croft so engaging though is her lack of training. She is self-taught and forged her skills in trial by fire situations. Everything she has accomplished she has done by relying on her own resourcefulness.

No game is too big, no treasure too elusive, and no tomb is safe from Lara Croft.
