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. Explore the Russian wilderness across vast, non-linear levels and follow a thrilling story-line that spans an entire year through spring, summer and autumn to the depths of nuclear winter. Inspired by the novels of Dmitry Glukhovsky, Metro Exodus continues Artyom’s story in the greatest Metro adventure yet.

What it’s about — and how it feels
Artyom’s journey carries a small band of survivors out of Moscow’s tunnels and across a changing Russian wilderness, where each season brings new terrain, dangers and fragile encounters. Metro Exodus alternates open-ended expeditions with close-quarters survival horror, making ammunition, stealth and scavenged supplies part of the story’s texture. Its quiet stretches leave room for the relationships aboard the train, while the harsh landscape keeps the post-apocalyptic journey grounded in unease.

More on your wavelength
Three titles that echo something distinctive in this one, with a quick note on the connection.
Both games send a solitary protagonist through hostile, altered environments, but Metro Exodus anchors its dangers in irradiated wilderness and scarce supplies rather than Control Resonant’s reality-bending powers and action-RPG combat.
Both build a sprawling adventure around a journey through a dangerous world and the people encountered along the way; Metro Exodus keeps its choices and combat in a first-person survival framework, unlike Baldur’s Gate III’s party-based, turn-based roleplaying
Both turn a hazardous cityscape into an explorable space where combat and stealth shape progress, though Metro Exodus trades Arkham City’s dense urban districts and fluid melee for seasonal wilderness, firearms and survival management.
