Metro Exodus announced, coming 2018

During Microsoft's E3 show, the next sequel in the Metro series was announced for 2018 as an exclusive for PC and Xbox.

The gorgeous trailer starts off in the familiar and claustrophobic depths before eventually stepping out into a vast open area. With a title like Exodus, it's reasonable to assume that Metro might be leaving the dank tunnels of the Moscow subway lines behind and forging out into new territory.

Details about the story or features are, at this time, scarce. But it looks like the familiar survival elements will remain intact as players scrounge for ammo and pick through dilapidated remains while avoiding mutants.

We'll update with more details about Metro Exodus as soon as we know more.

With over 7 years of experience with in-depth feature reporting, Steven's mission is to chronicle the fascinating ways that games intersect our lives. Whether it's colossal in-game wars in an MMO, or long-haul truckers who turn to games to protect them from the loneliness of the open road, Steven tries to unearth PC gaming's greatest untold stories. His love of PC gaming started extremely early. Without money to spend, he spent an entire day watching the progress bar on a 25mb download of the Heroes of Might and Magic 2 demo that he then played for at least a hundred hours. It was a good demo.
