- The OG Metro duo can now be yours on GOG, and they come with a fresh coat of performance polish - 14 May 2026
Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light are iconic in their own ways. Though both FPS games are showing their age - they're over a decade old, after all - they're still incredible experiences that are well worth playing if you haven't already. Now, the pair can be yours on GOG, which is fabulous if you're DRM-avoidant. As part of GOG's Preservation Program, both Metro 2033 and Last Light's Complete Edition come with some extra bells and whistles that help them stand the test of time a little bit more.

- Free deal makes classic FPS Metro 2033 explode on Steam, and it's still cheap - 17 April 2025
Metro 2033 Redux is having a birthday to remember. Marking 15 years of the apocalyptic survival FPS series, developer 4A Games and publisher Deep Silver gave away copies of the original game's remastered edition, and it's had a surprisingly big impact. Previously peaking at just under 15,000 active players back in 2018, Metro 2033 has just reached a new high of more than 50,000 concurrent users on the Valve platform, and it's looking likely to continue that success for a third day straight as players discover its charm.

- Classic post-nuclear shooter Metro 2033 Redux is now free to keep on Steam and GOG - 15 April 2025
15 years on from the release of Metro 2033 , I still think with fondness and yearning of the Uboinik automatic shotgun. It’s a six chamber cylindrical affair with mouthwatering red shells that dangle before your trigger finger like pert, juicy plums. This is just to say / I have shot / the shells / that were in / the shotgun / and which / you were probably / saving / for the mutant round the corner. / Forgive me / they were murderous / so sockety / and so round. Ahem. Reloading the shotgun is an intricate process of 1) sliding four shells into the available chambers while tossing the weapon jauntily from hand to hand, and then 2) cocking it again to expose and fill the remaining two chambers. You can also chamber a single shell and cock the weapon, if you don’t have time for a full reload, which means when you load another four shells and fire them, there’ll be an empty chamber to recko…

It seems like everyone is talking about the end of the world right now with the success of one post-apocalyptic series on the small screen.

- Today's free game from the Epic Store is set in 2033 - 22 December 2020
Epic's 15 days of free PC games for the holidays continues today with Metro 2033 Redux , the FPS game set in the Moscow underground. You can pick up a free copy this first chapter of the Metro trilogy over at the Epic Store until tomorrow's mystery game is unveiled. Metro 2033 is based on the novel of the same name by Dmitry Glukhovsky, and it follows Artyom, a survivor of a nuclear war that engulfed the world, as he navigates the factions and hazards that have grown in the Moscow subway system over the course of two decades since the nuclear apocalypse. Artyom finds that he's able to communicate with mysterious and powerful beings known as the Dark Ones, and he's drawn into the effort to destroy the creatures. It's one of the more thrilling shooter campaigns out there, and the Redux version, which uses the updated version of the 4A engine used in the sequel, Metro: Last Light, introduc…

Last year, Metro Exodus proved that the series could crawl out of the subterranean tunnels of its past and successfully carve out a new home exploring above ground. What’s next in this brave new world, then? A lot, apparently. Developers 4A Games have published an update to mark the tenth year since the series began and to say that they’ve got a whole lot on their plates. They’re working on the next Metro series game, tinkering with concepts for multiplayer Metro, and staffing up for a totally new series. (more…)

- Metro 2033 Redux and Everything currently free on the Epic Games Store - 27 September 2019
Everything is currently free on the Epic Games Store! But wait; before you go indiscriminately loading up your shopping cart (haha, just kidding), I should probably clarify: Everything the game is currently free on the Epic Store, as is Metro 2033 Redux. So if you're in the mood to expand that already insurmountable backlog still further, you know where to go. Everything, if it passed you by previously, is the acclaimed second game from David OReilly, the Irish artist and filmmaker responsible for strange, serene desktop experience Mountain (and, I just learned two minutes ago, the Adventure Time episode A Glitch is a Glitch). It's a somewhat unclassifiable experience, in which players are able to catalogue the universe - a goal achieved simply by inhabiting objects within Everything's procedurally generated world. And it's here that Everything gets its name, with players able to take o…

This is the original version of 4A Games’s shooter, rather than the polished up Redux edition, but still worth the trip if you’ve never tried it before. (more…)
- Metro Exodus wants you to feel liberated from all those trips through the tunnels - 15 October 2018
It s deathly quiet in the forest. Then the silence gives way to a man shouting for help. He’s tied to a post and trying to fend off a ravenous wolf. A single crossbow bolt takes the feral creature out. The shirtless man pleads for my help to free him, cussing as he explains his predicament. I choose to cut him loose. I owe you my life, he says. I ll never forget this, I swear. Inconsequential though it may seem, I begin to ponder his words. Could this have implications? Maybe his captors will return to find he s escaped and attempt to track me down. It may have been better to leave him tied up. But perhaps he ll help me the next time our paths cross. It s this kind of small-scale player choice that runs through the heart of Metro Exodus . (more…)
