Metro 2033 Redux is free to claim and keep on Steam for a limited time

The Metro franchise, known for its post-apocalyptic survival games, recently celebrated its 15th anniversary, and developer 4A Games has shared its future plans. Additionally, a giveaway has launched for the original title that started it all, Metro 2033. You can check out the '15 Years Of Metro - Celebration' video below.

In 2023, 4A Games announced that a new installment in the series is under development, and today, they provided an update on the progress. The studio revealed that they are also working on another AAA game in addition to the next Metro, though details are not yet available. This project is distinct from the team developing La Quimera.

Metro 2033 Redux upgraded the original game using the 4A Engine, first introduced with Metro: Last Light in 2013. The series continued with Metro Exodus in 2019 and will feature Metro Awakening in 2024, which has been recognized as one of the top VR games to date.

The company stated that it remains in collaboration with Dimitry Glukhovsky, the author of the Metro book series, who is currently a target of Russian authorities, aiming to deliver narratives that are "hard-hitting, political, and anti-war."

4A Games remarked, "As conflict, the struggle for power, the horrors of tyranny, and the price of freedom have become part of our lives over the past three years, we are still living and working during this wartime, and that inevitably influences the games we develop."

Regarding the giveaway, Metro 2033 Redux is being offered for free on Steam, GOG, and Xbox, with the promotion set to end at 8 AM PT on April 16. As always, don’t forget to use our comparator to find the best deals on your favorite upcoming titles.
