In 2013, 4A Games released Metro: Last Light, a direct-sequel to Metro 2033 and the only game in the series not to be based on any of Dmitry Glukhovsky novels due to Metro 2034's tonal change from its predecessor. In the alternative ending, Artyom learns of the Dark One's true nature in time and prevents the attack on the hive. In the canonical ending, the Colonel and Artyom are successful in destroying the hive, only to learn that the Dark Ones attacked in self-defense and ultimately wanted peace. Depending on choices made throughout the game, Metro 2033 has two possible endings. There, it's revealed that the Dark Ones have a nest in the botanical gardens and Colonel Miller has a plan to blow up the hive. In 2033, the Exhibition (a converted former Metro station) is attacked by the Dark Ones, a group of mysterious creatures that live in the tunnels, forcing Artyom to leave his home base and travel to the Metro capitol Polis to seek help.įighting off mutants, mutated creatures, bandits, and the neo-Nazi Fourth Reich, Artyom travels from station to station until he reaches Polis. Players take on the role of Artyom, a 24-year-old survivor that was born before the war but has grown up in the Metro tunnels.

For now, the next Metro game is likely years away, and 4A Games won't have much to say for a while, so rather than speculate on where the story is going, here's a complete breakdown of everything that's happened in the Metro franchise so far. In celebration of the series' 10-year anniversary, 4A Games confirmed it had already begun work on a brand new Metro game, and that the new multiplayer game was actually a " multiplayer experience in the Metro universe." While the trilogy of games is loosely based on the book series by Dmitry Glukhovsky, whatever comes next would be an original tale. Last August, Metro Exodus developer 4A Games was purchased by Embracer Group, the parent company of THQ Nordic, and it was announced that the studio would be overseeing a brand new IP, as well as working on a new multiplayer game. Previously, 4A Games has only developed one other game outside of the Metro series, a VR first-person shooter called ARKTIKA.1, so it's natural the team would be looking to try something new, particularly after trading dimly-lit corridors for an open-world in Metro Exodus.
