We haven’t seen anything from develoepr 4A Games’ upcoming “HD” port of their ridiculously good Metro series. That is, until now. Today, they released a bevy of content, including a debut trailer, screenshots and box art. Having played the first two games numerous times each, I wasn’t sure whether or not I’d be picking this up, but not it’s clear to me that they’re making sure Metro Redux is way more than a simple port to current gen consoles.
For one, Redux will bring with it improved visuals (duh), smooth 60fps gameplay (thank you), and never-before-seen content. The original game, 2033, will likely benefit the most from the HD remastering, but visual improvements aside, they’ve also reworked the enemy AI, which if you played it back in 2010, you’ll likely remember it wasn’t all that great.
2033 will also see a few of the tweaks 4A made with Last Light, including the nifty mask wipe mechanic, weapon customization, and silent kills and takedowns.
I will definitely be getting my hands on Metro Redux when it releases this summer on PC, PS4, and Xbox One for $49.99.
