Dec 10, 2024Metro Awakening is one of the best VR experiences I've had so far, and may even be my Game Of The Year. If you are willing to get scared a few times, I could not recommend this game more to you. If It wasn't for the lack of a knife, I think this would have been a 10/10, but because of this, I avoided experiencing a majority of the stealth options. I hope Vertigo Games keeps up with this momentum because they are one of the best in the business so far.

Nov 5, 2024Metro Awakening is the full Metro experience tailor-made for VR and is a must-play for fans of the series and VR enthusiasts alike.

Nov 6, 2024Metro Awakening is a wholly new and unique Metro game that nails its predecessors' atmosphere, narrative elements, and tense combat. It's one of the strongest VR games out there, and I'd go so far as to say it's the optimal way to experience the Metro universe in videogame form, even if performance woes and bugs hold it back on Meta Quest 3.

Dec 3, 2024Metro also works in VR, even if Awakening is a little weaker than the non-VR parts of the series.

Dec 2, 2024Metro Awakening delivers a strong immersive experience for fans of Dmitry Glukhovsky's saga, offering the chance to explore Russian tunnels in VR. While its ambition is commendable, the game suffers from slow pacing that affects its rhythm and replayability. Although it might have been groundbreaking years ago, in 2024 it highlights a lack of innovation in high-budget VR titles. The developers show potential, and there’s hope for a refined future installment. Fans would still likely embark on another Metro VR adventure despite its flaws.

Nov 6, 2024Had it lasted 4-5 hours and offered more variety in locations and gameplay, Metro Awakening could have been a solid FPS-survival experience in VR. As it stands, though, it risks becoming tedious well before reaching the end.

Jan 2, 2025One of the best VR experiences of the year. The game captures Metro's feelings with great horror moments, stealth and of course, fantastic shootings. [Recommended]
