Metro: Last Light takes place soon after the events depicted in Metro 2033, and assumes that the player has played the first game. Now that the basics are out of the way… if you haven’t played Metro 2033, then you must before playing this game. Another annoying thing I noticed immediately was, you have to watch the intro ads every single time you launch the game. Thankfully, more options can be found in C:\Users\Admin\Appdata\Local\4A Games\Metro LL\someLongNumber\user.cfg, so this isn’t a real issue for anyone who knows how to browse their computer, though first you’ll have to make it so your drive shows hidden folders.

You get the usual key bindings, basic mouse and audio options, but very little graphics options.

Since it’s a Steamworks game, it also supports Steam cloud which can save your in-game settings, and also slow down the loading of your game slightly (when opening and closing it anyway).įor a game that targets PC gamers more than console gamers, there’s a surprising lack of in-game options. It uses Steamworks, so no matter how you obtain the game, you’ll need a Steam account to play it, though this gives the player all sorts of benefits and thankfully does not require an internet connection. Like the first game, PC seemed to be their focus, judging by the technical achievements which I’ll discuss later. Metro: Last Light is available on XBOX 360, Playstation 3, and most importantly, PC.

Let’s see if Metro: Last Light truly delivers. Regardless, it is well acknowledged here at GND-Tech, and we hope to see more of that atmospheric, immersive excellence we saw in the first game.

After a number of delays, 4A overcame the odds and released the much anticipated sequel to Metro 2033.Īlthough it is one of the very best shooters ever made, Metro 2033 didn’t receive the praise it deserved due to the current state and audience of the gaming industry. One of this year’s hottest titles among the PC gaming community, Metro: Last Light is finally here.
