'Metro 2033 Redux' (ALL) Comes To Nintendo Switch Next Month - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Jan. 16, 2020 @ 10:26 a.m. PST

Metro Redux features fully re-mastered and improved versions of both Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light, creating the most compelling Metro experience ever.

With re-worked next-gen visuals, smooth 60FPS gameplay on console, as well as new and improved content and features, Metro Redux is much more than a simple HD upgrade.

The original game has been rebuilt in the latest and greatest iteration of the 4A Engine, bringing all the graphical and gameplay improvements from Last Light to Metro 2033 Redux

Enjoy completely re-mastered visuals: advanced lighting, dynamic weather, more detailed characters with improved animation, more dynamic destruction and improved smoke, fire and particle effects

 Experience radically improved gameplay: advanced enemy AI, improved combat and stealth mechanics, superior weapon handling and more responsive, intuitive controls plus signature features from Last Light such as the atmospheric ‘mask wipe’ mechanic, weapon customisation, and silent kills and take-downs

Metro: Last Light Redux has also received a graphical face-lift and gameplay improvements that carry across both titles, including new melee animations, and the fan requested ‘Check Watch’ and ‘Check Inventory’ features. It also includes all previously released Season Pass add-on content – a further 10 hours of single-player gameplay.


Purchasers of the retail boxed edition of Metro Redux will find both games (Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light) and all DLC on one 16 GB cart with no additional download required. The ‘Ranger Cache Pre-order Pack’ is available at select retailers and contains a Metro Redux pin badge set, game case sleeve, double-sided alternate artwork inlay, four double sided art cards and a full color Metro poster. Those who prefer digital copies can purchase Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light individually from the Nintendo e-Shop.

The retail version of Metro Redux for the Nintendo Switch will launch on Feb 28, 2020 with a MSRP of $49.99. Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light can be purchased individually through the Nintendo eShop for $24.99 per title. The ‘Ranger Cache Pre-order Pack’ is available for purchase exclusively at GameStop for $49.99.

With Metro Redux, players now have the choice to experience both Metro games the way they want with the introduction of two unique ‘Play Styles.’

Those who favored the more survival horror oriented gameplay of Metro 2033 can play both campaigns in the ‘Survival’ Play Style, a fraught slow-burn fight for survival with limited resources, deadlier enemy AI, and slower reload speeds. Those who enjoyed the more action oriented gameplay of Metro: Last Light can try the ‘Spartan’ Play Style, providing Artyom with a powerful set of combat skills and more plentiful resources.

In addition, the legendary Ranger Mode returns to both games, providing the most immersive and challenging experience as the HUD is stripped away and hardcore rules apply.

Currently available for PS4, Xbox One and PC, Metro Redux for the Nintendo Switch will launch on Feb 28, 2020 at $49.99.
