Get ready to experience the gripping post-apocalyptic thriller Metro Awakening in virtual reality (VR) this November on Meta Quest, Steam, PlayStation VR2, and Viveport platforms.
Developed by Vertigo Games, Metro: Awakening delivers a gripping origin story, set five years prior to Metro 2033, as penned by the renowned writer and Metro creator, Dmitry Glukhovsky. A brand-new trailer for the highly anticipated narrative journey was unveiled at today’s PlayStation State of Play event, confirming the game’s launch date as November 7.
Pre-ordering Vertigo’s $40 Standard Edition will grant you access to the ‘Area Medic’ pack, featuring a selection of cosmetic items for your backpack and gloves. Those opting for the $50 Deluxe Edition, on the other hand, will receive the ‘Recollections of Polyanka’ beauty pack, along with a digital VR concept art gallery.
Set against the backdrop of atmospheric exploration, stealth, and combat, Metro Awakening puts you in the role of Serdar, a doctor-turned-rescuer tasked with saving his wife deep within the labyrinthine Moscow Metro system. “Embracing the precipice of madness and courage, one must navigate the perilous path that separates existence from annihilation, the realms of spirit and flesh, and unlock the essence of their true self,” declares Vertigo’s enigmatic tagline on the Steam platform.
Metro Awakening lands on November 7, launching simultaneously on Meta Quest, PlayStation VR2, Steam, and Viveport. By pre-ordering the Deluxe Version on Steam or PSVR 2, you’ll gain early access to the entire experience starting from November 5 when you also unlock it.
