Metro 15th Anniversary Updates
Metro 2033 Redux Is Free Until April 16

In honor of its 15th anniversary, Metro is offering Metro 2033 Redux for free for the next 48 hours. 4A Games announced this exciting news on Metro's official Twitter (X) account on April 14, stating that the game is available at no cost on Steam and Xbox until April 16 at 3 PM UTC / 5 PM CET / 9 AM PT.
This move is designed to introduce new players to the series' origins. Additionally, last month, 4A Games shared further plans for the anniversary celebrations in a blog post on their official website on March 16.

The post highlighted, "Throughout this year, there will be events, deals, and celebratory content on the Metro social media channels, to thank you, our players for coming on the journey so far with us."
4A Games, founded in Kyiv, Ukraine, and later expanding to Malta, draws inspiration from Dmitry Glukhovsky's science fiction novels, starting with Metro 2033. Amidst the challenges faced by their home country, 4A Games remains committed to exploring themes related to the war in Ukraine. They expressed, "These circumstances are incredibly challenging, the situation remains dangerous and not within our control, but we are currently as safe as possible, and we want to manage your expectations around the reveal of the next Metro title, it will be ready when it is ready, and we can’t wait for you to see it."
The Next Metro

Currently, 4A Games is working on two major projects: the next Metro installment and a new intellectual property (IP). While details about the new IP remain under wraps, they've shared insights into the next Metro game.
The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has deeply influenced the development process and narrative direction of the next Metro game. In their blog post, 4A Games noted, "As we said in our last studio update, in 2022 a full-scale Russian invasion changed how we wanted to tell the story of the next Metro game. As art became life for many of our developers in Ukraine, we drew from that lived experience to create an even darker story, those themes already present in Metro becoming ever-more apparent and important."
Despite the challenges, 4A Games remains dedicated to crafting impactful, reality-inspired stories. They are committed to overcoming these obstacles to deliver a powerful new chapter in the Metro series, ensuring it resonates more than ever with fans.
