The linear direction of the previous two games is more relaxed allowing you to explore your surroundings at your leisure finding enemy camps, abandoned buildings with precious loot and crafting materials and diary parts and audio logs which continue to push the overall story.Įven with the shift into open world, the game is still as tense as ever, partly thanks to the next generation of hardware being able to push more detail and better soundscapes as you traverse dark sewers crawling with mutants, buildings filled with packs of rabid mutated dogs or repurposed shacks and towers patrolled by enemy humans. You’ll find a range of different monsters and human settlements some which want to seek out friendship while others will be hostile, such as a bunch of tech-fearing churchgoers.Īlthough more open world than the previous games, there are no side quests that you gain through exploration, everything is still carefully controlled by the games main narrative. At the same time concentrating on giving players more freedom than ever before thanks to the open world nature of Exodus. Take your time through the richest and detailed places where the storyline favours the human elements of the franchise putting the more supernatural to the side. Metro Exodus picks up where the previous games left off with a two-year time jump where Artyom, Anna and the rest of the Spartan Rangers are lead by Anna’s father Colonel Miller as they board the train known as the Aurora as they travel across the continent in four beautifully detailed landscapes that span a year of seasons from snowy ruined cities to deserts and forests bursting with greenery. ![]() Thanks to the slow, steady pace of the game Metro is a different take on the usual guns blazing alternatives on the market where atmosphere still takes the limelight when traversing through the various environments of Russia. Metro Exodus is able to successfully combine its well-written story-driven narrative that was once linear into an open world platform that is a good length while not taking away from the series trademark tension and scare factor. Although above ground the game still does not take away from the fact you’ll spend a lot of time on a train. Metro finally travels outside the tunnels of the underground into a single player story driven narrative that sees Artyom, Anna and the rest of the crew explore irritated Russia in search for a place above ground they can call home without monsters, radiation and enemy humans. ![]()
