The recent announcement of a new entry in the Metro franchise, the VR game “Metro Awakening”, has sparked excitement among fans. This means there’s never been a better time to revisit the immersive world of the Russian mass transit system. Currently, you can grab the Metro franchise bundle, which includes titles like “Metro 2033 Redux”, “Metro: Last Light Redux”, and “Metro Exodus”, at a discounted price of just $9.51 on GOG (originally $59.47).

The Metro franchise offers a distinct and often grim take on the post-apocalyptic world. It presents a society that has had to adapt and survive underground, with its own unique challenges and perils. Instead of using common currencies like coins, bullets are used as a means of exchange. The music has taken on a more somber and mournful tone, with echoes of widows’ sobbing. And rather than encountering friendly creatures, literal demons lurk in the shadows. This darker and more intense version of the post-apocalypse adds to the immersive experience and makes for a captivating gaming world.

Playing these games in their native Russian dialect can enhance the immersion even further, allowing players to fully immerse themselves in the atmosphere and culture of the post-apocalyptic world. The voice acting in all of the titles is solid, adding to the authenticity and drama of the gameplay.

If you already own some of these games, don’t worry. Each entry in the Metro franchise is also available separately at their lowest prices ever, along with the post-launch DLC for “Metro Exodus”.
