Metro Exodus takes you out of the Metro to snowy Russia. A post-apocalyptic Russian world is waiting for you.
The post-apocalyptic world in Metro Exodus
Snow-covered ruins, a singing desert and dense forests await you. The atmosphere is even denser than in the earlier Metro parts. The third part also takes you through a post-apocalyptic world. The protagonist Artjom is on the way with his wife Anna and some rangers in the Aurora steam engine in search of radiation-free places.
The steam locomotive serves as the basic game. Talk to the crew, maintain your equipment, get new orders from Miller. He is the Colonel of the Rangers and Anna's father.
Problems you get are lack of water and fuel or, for example, broken rails. Aurora is forced to stop and you go to the respective zone and look for solutions to the problems.
The levels in Metro Exodus are extremely detailed. People sit at the dining table as dilapidated skeletons and posters provide clues as to what the world was like in the past. When exploring, there are always references to the history behind it.
Your opponents are dangerous mutants, bandits and other extremists. Artjom meets people who need help or who are struggling to survive in the world themselves. You can help each other. The synchronization of Metro: Exodus is a great success. You build a connection with the other characters. Unfortunately, the developers did not set Artjom to music in the conversations, but only on the loading screen.
The interior levels in Metro: Exodus have a lot of scary potential and are convincing in this regard. Bunkers, caves and tunnels demand to be explored. With a Geiger counter you can keep an eye on the radiation level and you need new filters for the gas mask. Suspicious noises let you listen for mutants or discover traps. There is a shortage of ammunition and if you are not careful you will quickly find yourself degraded to a mutant's snack. There are plenty of ways to die in Metro: Exodus.
Conclusion on Metro Exodus
Metro Exodus is an excellent successor to the last two metro sections. The game challenges and conveys a creepy atmosphere. You follow a linear story and have the opportunity to go on open-world exploration. Scouts are very well served. The graphics are outstanding and very detailed. Metro: Exodus is an absolute recommendation for fans of the first-person shooter genre.
