Briefly: Wow.

We’re still digesting everything that we saw in the just-concluded Microsoft E3 press conference, but the reveal of a new, open world game set in the Metro 2033 universe was one of the coolest (and definitely the most surprising) moments of today’s Microsoft presentation.

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.

Flee the shattered ruins of dead Moscow and embark on an epic, continent-spanning journey across post-apocalyptic Russia in the greatest Metro adventure yet.
Explore the Russian wilderness in vast, non-linear levels and follow a thrilling story-line inspired by the novels of Dmitry Glukhovsky that spans an entire year through spring, summer and autumn to the depths of nuclear winter.
Yeah, technically the next Metro game isn’t actually in Metro, but guys, we’re getting a new Metro game.

Watch the gameplay reveal trailer below, and let us know what you enjoyed most about today’s Microsoft conference.

Metro: Last light can’t get here any sooner. The sequel to Metro 2033, Metro: Last Light has promised to offer next gen cutting edge graphics and environments. Well we finally get a peak at what we can expect come 2013. Check out the Genesis trailer below.

 

4A Games has really out done themselves with this one. Metro 2033 was a stunning example of how a fantastic book can be brought to life in a very organic way. We can expect greatness this time around as well, because the author of Metro 2033 and Metro 2034, Dmitry Glukhovsky is writing the story for Last Light.

So you say “Shane, you are extremely attractive and even though you have a tendency to flip out at the drop of the hat we all love you very much and value your voice at Geekscape, but I am absolutely new to the Metro games series! I haven’t played 2033 and don’t want to get left behind.”

Well you’re in luck, as THQ is really being generous right now what with their Humble Bundle. Well the Christmas cheer keeps flowing as they are giving Metro 2033 away…FOR FREE! AS IN BEER! AS IN DON’T COST A THING!

You can get your very own free copy of Metro 2033 right here!
