Experience the beauty and horror of the wasteland in an all-new shade of apocalypse.
From the creaking of the trees and the sound of the wind rustling through their branches, to the birds chirping and singing songs on the air, or the soft crunch of autumn leaves under your feet as you make your way through a beautifully orange and amber-hued forest, you know that this is an altogether different Metro. In Metro Exodus you play as Artyom. Following on from the events of the previous games, you, along with your wife Anna and a team of Spartan Rangers, head west in search of a new home and a new future for your people outside the cold and harsh confines of the Moscow Metro system. The game takes place over the span of a full year and in a world seemingly recovering from the devastation of war you’ll get to experience it all during the four seasons. We’ve already had a glimpse of the all-too-familiar nuclear winter in Moscow, spent time trudging through the Volga river during spring and now we get a good look at the wasteland in autumn.
Apart from having a completely different visual palette than what we’ve seen so far, the forest environment itself offers up a whole bunch of new experiences, from the way you play, to the people or enemies you meet and the things you discover.
