Metro's claustrophobic tunnels and irradiated surface offer a masterclass in atmosphere, built on a foundation of scarcity and consequence. The gas mask mechanic, both a vulnerability and a necessity, dictates every foray into the poisoned world above. This survival shooter's commitment to resource management, from ammunition to filters, creates a constant tension that few games achieve, forcing difficult choices with lasting repercussions.

About Metro: Last Light

Details
The game picks up after the bad ending from Metro 2033, in which Artyom delivers a devastating attack on the mysterious supernatural race known as the Dark Ones. The station-cities of the Metro struggle for power using weapons found in D6. The player follows Artyom, the main protagonist from Metro 2033, as he searches for the mysterious "Prisoner", the supposed “key to survival – the last light in our darkest hour…”
