Metro: Exodus is one of the most promising games of this year. On paper, it has everything to please the gamers who put their focus on single-player experiences, and if the pieces of gameplay shown at various conventions indicate anything, the game will not only look gorgeous, but also has a big chance to be a serious contender to win the title of the best game of 2018.
The game's producer, Jon Bloch said that "
Metro Exodus’ script is larger than both Metro 2033’s and Metro: Last Light’s scripts combined, including all DLC". I would like to remind you that
Last Light was a pretty long, intense experience. There's a possibility that
Exodus will be even longer than most of the FPS games offered today and to beat the game, a player will need more than 20 hours.
Dmitrij Głuchowski, the mastermind behind the Metro universe and the author of Metro 2033, 2034 and 2035, the books that heavily inspired 4A's games, crafted some truly great novels. If you can't wait to play Exodus, I would definitely recommend checking out his work. His guides can be pretty helpful while entering the dark and deadly metro stations...
The year is 2036. A quarter-century after nuclear war devastated the earth, a few thousand survivors still cling to existence beneath the ruins of Moscow, in the tunnels of the Metro. They have struggled against the poisoned elements, fought mutated beasts and paranormal horrors, and suffered the flames of civil war. But now, as Artyom, you must flee the Metro and lead a band of Spartan Rangers on an incredible, continent-spanning journey across post-apocalyptic Russia in search of a new life in the East. Metro Exodus is an epic, story-driven first person shooter from 4A Games that blends deadly combat and stealth with exploration and survival horror in one of the most immersive game worlds ever created.
Metro Exodus is releasing on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC this year.
