In Tomb Raider III
In Tomb Raider III the Rocket Launcher can be found for the first time in either the level Madubu Gorge or Aldwych, depending on to which location the player chooses to go to first.
Rockets serve as ammunition for the Rocket Launcher and they're rather rare. This results in the Rocket Launcher being only of limited use in the game.
The Rocket Launcher fires one rocket per shot, and must be reloaded after. Luckily reloading is fairly quick for this type of weapon: Lara just uses a lever on the side of the tube. No other weapon in the game inflicts this much damage. Also, it is very accurate and useful for extreme long range, Therefore, this weapon is best employed against large enemies such as the monsters in Antarctica or bosses.
