But within each sandbox, there will be plenty to explore and various side quests that complement the overarching narrative. It's not truly open in the sense that when you progress to the next stage, you can't go back. The game plays out over a number of large sandboxes. The two preceding Metro titles have followed more or less linear trajectories, but Metro: Exodus blends in open-world elements for the first time. Going above ground and out of Moscow introduces a totally different style of play to previous games. While mutated beasts and zombie-like humans continue to be a threat, the game places more emphasis on isolated factions of other survivors enduring the nuclear winter out in the wasteland. You can disable notifications at any time in your settings menu. In Metro: Exodus, our young protagonist finally escapes the claustrophobic darkness of the Moscow metro system as he and fellow survivors venture out of the city on a train called the Aurora, in search of something better.
#METRO EXODUS CHAPTERS SERIES#
They're loosely based on a series of novels by Russian author Dmitry Glukhovsky, and follow the story of Artyom and his comrades in a constant struggle against radiation, mutants and resource scarcity.
If you missed the previous two games, Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light, the series is set in Russia in a near future where nuclear war has ravaged the planet. I fear, however, that this new focus on strategic exploration and resource management might unduly impact the pace of the game - making it more about foraging for supplies than immersing you in the single-player storyline. Fresh looting and crafting mechanics add another dimension to gameplay compared with previous titles in the series.
That is, for the most part, as the cookie-cutter mutant enemies aren't quite as polished and realistic as everything else.
I got a little playtime with Metro: Exodus before the big reveal today, and came away with some mixed, albeit very early impressions. With development nearing completion, though, 4A Games is today spilling the beans on what we can expect from Metro: Exodus, both in terms of storyline and the nitty gritty of gameplay mechanics. Studio 4A Games announced the title at E3 2017, but all we've really heard since is that the release window has been pushed from later this year to early next. Metro: Exodus, the third game in the post-apocalyptic Metro saga, falls very much into the latter camp. This year's E3 has already given us a glimpse of a wide spectrum of games, from upcoming installments in classic multiplayer franchises to new and interesting, story-driven titles.
