They boast 60FPS on the consoles with ”new and improved content and features” for all. It’s ”much more” than a HD tune-up, with 2033 rebuilt in Last Light’s engine.
4A Games also introduces two ‘Play Styles’ with Survival focusing on a ”fraught slow-burn fight” with limited resources and deadlier AI. Spartan is more action orientated.
Ranger Mode will feature in both games which peels away the HUD and enforces hardcore rules. Metro 2033 Redux and Metro: Last Light Redux will be sold separately as digital releases across PC, Xbox One and PS4 for around $24.99 / €19.99 / £15.99, with a physical retail bundling both together at $49.99 / €39.99 / £34.99.
Deep Silver estimates a release this summer and have posted a Metro Redux announcement trailer.
Features:
▪ The original game has been rebuilt in the latest and greatest iteration of the 4A Engine, bringing all the graphical and gameplay improvements from Last Light to Metro 2033 Redux
▪ Enjoy completely re-mastered visuals: advanced lighting, dynamic weather, more detailed characters with improved animation, more dynamic destruction and improved smoke, fire and particle effects
▪ Experience radically improved gameplay: advanced enemy AI, improved combat and stealth mechanics, superior weapon handling and more responsive, intuitive controls plus signature features from Last Light such as the atmospheric ‘mask wipe’ mechanic, weapon customisation, and silent kills and take-downs
Metro: Last Light Redux has also received a graphical face-lift and gameplay improvements that carry across both titles, including new melee animations, and the fan requested ‘Check Watch’ and ‘Check Inventory’ features. It also includes all previously released Season Pass add-on content – a further 10 hours of single-player gameplay.
