A prequel from Metro series author and creator Dmitry Glukhovsky, Metro Awakening is an all-new immersive, story-driven VR adventure.

Metro Awakening will plunge players headlong into an unforgiving post-apocalyptic world that blends the series’ staples of highly atmospheric exploration, storytelling, and stealth combat.

Metro Awakening stays true to the series' hallmark storytelling, with an all-new standalone narrative and original concept penned by Dmitry Glukhovsky which serves as a prequel to the beloved Metro 2033. You assume the role of Serdar, a doctor on a quest to reunite with his wife by traveling through the mutant-ridden tunnels beneath a post-apocalyptic Moscow. As Serdar, you will navigate a complex storyline that tests beliefs in the rational and tempts you to embrace the awakening of the being you are destined to become.

Faithful to its legacy, Metro Awakening immerses players in an intense first-person adventure, seamlessly blending survival and stealth action enhanced by cutting-edge VR technology. While armed with some of the Metro franchise’s most iconic survival gear, venture into the depths of the subterranean world and feel the panic as you scramble for gas mask filters, experience the pulse-quickening charge of your flickering headlamp in the darkness, and embrace the heart-pounding intensity of combat.


Vertigo Games and PLAION revealed the opening minutes of Metro Awakening.

Pre-orders of the Deluxe Edition on PS VR2 and Steam VR grant Early Access to the full game on Nov. 5.

In addition, development continues separately at 4A Games on the next mainline installment of the Metro series.

Metro Awakening is coming to PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2 and 3/S, Viveport and PC VR on November 7, 2024.
