Metro Exodus, partially inspired by Dmitry Glukhovsky's best-selling
Metro 2035 novel, will continue Artyom's odyssey to the East that started in 2010's
Metro 2033 video game and progressed in
Metro: Last Light. To reach Vladivostok in
Exodus' version of the Far East, Artyom and his beloved Anna will travel by the Aurora, the heavily modified steam locomotive, using the famed Trans-Siberian Railway.
Developer 4A has released a bunch of never-before-seen screenshots for
Metro: Exodus that spotlight the aforementioned train and some cast members who try to see the light of a new day in this ruined world - Kazakhstani born medic Damir who hopes to find any surviving relatives on this journey through Russia, heavy weapons specialist Stepan, and Sam, a optimistic former US Embassy guard.
The studio has also shared two all-new images of new bests you will face during your journey in
Exodus - spiders that love the darkness, webs and holes to strike and the mutated bears that are extremely resistant to firearms. Even before its launch, there’s no doubt that
Exodus will be one of the best-looking video games in recent memory with 4A Games' beautifully realized vision of the fallen Russia:
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 will be releasing on February 15, 2019 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
