    The story is very very good and the new animation for all npc's and Artyom is much more believable this time around. The game is still hard as dicks on Ranger Hardcore while playing survival mode so that means if you want a challenge you will find one. And hard one at that. The gun play and weapon customization is now on the level on last light and that means more weapons such as the bicycle gun, flame thrower, Kalash 2012 etc.
    I honestly think this is better than the original in practically every aspect and if you liked Metro 2033 you will and I promise this, you will love the Redux to Bits. 10/10 4A knows what they are doing. Fantastic game !    … Expand

    One of the few true "remastered" games we had in the past years, graphics looks average for a PS4 which is great considering the game is much older than the console, they had a lot of things compared to the original and this is also true concerning the gameplay with new guns, new scenes, etc..

It may even be of interest to gamers who played the original game. 4A studios didn't just did this redux for easy money they wanted to do a better game.

    The story and the atmosphere are among the best in the FPS genre (Bioshock, Wolfenstein: New Order level), it's unique, immersing and pretty damn cool. Unfortunately for a game that doesn't propose any other mode than its story it is a little short (around 10 hours) when I consider this kind of game should last at least 12-15 hours, like its sequel (Last Light) did, so it isn't ridiculously shorts but could have use more levels.

    Gameplay wise the game offers the choice between a very action loaded style or a more stealth/survival style , personally I think that the survival style is more in line with the story but it's good that you have the choice. The different difficulties are well dosed and really go from extremely easy to almost impossible, really a great job to satisfy every kind of player. Now concerning the level design it is very good but not perfect and I feel like the game lacks of memorable moments. It's very good and regular but not exceptional.

    So to summarize Metro 2033 Redux is a very good game and could even interest the owners of the original game, but it lacks a few more hours and great gameplay moments to make it a mandatory buy. Still a great FPS very advised.    … Expand

    Story, difficulty, times it made me sweat - 10/10.

    Controls - 5/10. I was going to wait to get this on PC, as I hadn't built my rig yet, but I saw it for a goo deal on the PSN store over the holidays a few years back. I truly have enjoyed playing the game, though the frustration of poorly optimized controls has killed me more times than I care to admit.

    I preferred Last Light to Metro 2033, especially the graphics, the stealth and the story. I also prefer fighting humans than strange creatures.
    I dont like that there is almost no noise/movement when walking, it really feel unrealistic.

    Excellent and very believable atmosphere
    Characters and story are brilliant - amazing pacing
    The gameplay is great but it gets repetitive sometimes times, especially for the lack of different monsters (something good in Last Light)
    I loved the possibility of make different paths within a few levels - I love games that have this mechanics because it gives freedom to the player.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A game that flirts with greatness, but ultimately is just above-average. 7.5 / 10

    At times both games seem to be frantically-paced FPS's in poorly-lit environments where you'll fight the urge to empty off round after round at shadows in a blind panic. However, when the lighting effects and atmosphere DO work--more so on Last Light redux than Metro 2033 redux--it provides a uniquely claustrophobic and chaotic experience.

    (Also, to be honest if a player is really bothered by the lighting effects, they can just crank up the games in-menu brightness so it's never too dim to see everything in your environment.)

    Since this is a modern FPS, there will be many scripted moments where characters slowly advance whilst spouting exposition when--if you're like me--you just want to get to the combat. Fortunately the combat is fun when you do get to it, the controls are mostly spot-on, and the story that spans both discs is interesting enough to keep you invested.

    Somehow a plot line involving radioactive mutants, nazis, poltergeists, communists, and aliens was well-written enough to not be ridiculous, tongue-in-cheek, or disjointed, and that's can't be easy to write. I'd love to see more Video Games use novels as source material.

    Much like another PS4 game I reviewed--Wolfenstein: the New Order--there is no multiplayer at all. While this will put off many players, the fact that you get two whole campaigns to experience adds value. Metro redux is $50 new and offers essential twice as much content as W:TNO, which is the standard $60. Metro is the better deal especially if you're a noob to both games.    … Expand

The game plays fantastic, I don't believe I encountered any major issues, and what minor issues I did encounter, they were so few and far between that I barely noticed them. The game has been updated slightly for the more modern audience, and to fit better with Metro: Last light. The weapons have been updated, there are new sections in the game that help bridge chapters together better, and the game allows for both stealthy play styles and Rambo play styles. You can do either of these on the new game modes, "Survival" and "Spartan". Survival is closest to the original Metro 2033's design, where ammo and supplies are hard to find and in limited quantities in the world, and more expensive in shops. Spartan is more Metro: Last Light and a more traditional FPS experience, where ammo and supplies are plentiful and a lot cheaper in shops. On top of the new modes, you can customize your experience even more with the intricate difficulty system. Normal offers your standard game play, and the higher up the difficulty chain you go, the more damage enemies deal to you, the more damage you deal to enemies, the less you find supplies in the world and the more expensive they get in shops. Your HUD gets more and more limited too. Mixing a beautiful and masterful blend of horror, survival and action, Metro 2033 Redux is a fantastic game, and a perfect example of how remasters should be done.… Expand

    Metro 2033 is a post-apocalyptic FPS game with horror and survival elements. Emptying your magazines to quickly will result in a savage death, but taking a careful approach by using stealth and precision will keep you alive in the metro and moscow.

    The game is linear, with a well made pacing and characters who you meet along your journey. in between missions in the hostile metro you'll be visiting metro stations where you can buy, trade and/or upgrade your weapons, and stock up on ammo and equipment. The way this is done gives the player a moment to breath after an intense section, after which they will be thrown into a new challenge. In addition, this makes the game feel like a true videogame, as it is friendly towards the player.

    The gunplay feels responsive and yet not too easy. Sound is exquisite, and even the graphics look good for a game that originally came out in 2010. As in the intro, atmosphere and immersion are key here, as you'll be carefull while travelling, and one mistake can end up with you being swarmed by mutants.

    The game offers a very interesting story based on the Metro series books, which is one about survival and heroïsm. It has a moral system, which can give you two distinct endings.

    Although there are some very cool cinematic set piece battles, the game does have a bad habit of multiple encounters with hordes of mutants-which would be great if you didn't have 8 bullets and it takes 10 bullets to the face to kill one of the mutants. What could have been tense is just frustrating and provided some real pacing problems for the story.

    There's also one more major issue-the voice acting. Not only is everyone doing a terrible Russian accent, every bit of dialogue has weird inflections and sounds forced. I wound up just setting the dialogue to Russian and reading the subtitles. Real bad.

And to add to that, one time I could overhear an enemy talking by carefully sniping down another enemy and that quite hard to get unique dialogue goes on for like a 5 min which they for some reason decided to translate while many others are only in Russian. I don’t want to play it in English because immersion hey! All in all the translations seems very simplified since everyone speaks far longer than the short text shows up.
    It’s often a bit hard to figure out exactly where to go next since you only got one compass pointing in one direction and no flashing spots on the screen. Both good and bad.
    The female characterisation in these games feels medieval.

    The story-line itself is bordering on the crazy but also believable at the same time with humanity all retreating underground in the Metro after nuclear fallout and then end up starting small wars with each other over petty ideology. Throw in an endless supply of disgustingly mutated monsters coming at you from all angles without warning and you have an awesome few hours of fun!

    My only gripes really are the small selection of weaponry available and the limited customization allowed on them. Also the somewhat heavy and slow feel to the controls. I had to increase the sensitivity level to maximum and it still felt a little slow, but that may just be me.

    I loved this game back in a day, decided to play again to see how it holds up.

    Sad to declare, it's not that good. To begin with:
    Chapters are too short to get involved with the story
    I don't mind that game is linear, but I would have liked interaction with the world to be less limited
    There is some getting used to the Pickup area for items, which is small
    In general, voice acting and animations are dated, there is no cohesive story and has really bad writing. Compared to next (Metro Last Light), the story is less interesting and less engaging, especially with no permanent or long enough surviving side characters.
    Regarding supernatural, there is way too little (mostly at the end) and story explains almost nothing about it. Ending also is quite frustrating I think.
    "Machine gun turret" mission is pretty bad and controls are horrible!
    There are several glitches (such as the rangers at the library mission where they dont come) and the AI that sometimes detects you out of nowhere or does not detect at all.
    Deus Ex Machinas everywhere.

    Now the goods:
    Game has really nice "feel" of Russian culture (well, in this hypothetical setting)
    It is a good introduction to metro series, especially the factions.
    Some dialogue is really funny.
    Game design, "realistic" animations and attention to detail is still mind-blowing for a game 10 years+ old.    … Expand

    Finally played this and Metro:Last Light in 2021 when I'd run out of PS4 games to play, and expected an ordinary PS3-era slice of ho-hum fps.

    Damn, was I wrong.

    This is not only a great game considering its age, it's a great PS4 game full-stop.

    Loved it, and would have preferred to give a 7.5. Played from start to finish, and got it so cheaply from the ps store I feel a bit guilty.

    Definitely the second best out of the series, way better than it's successor. This one just has more horror feeling to it than Exodus and Last Light. Controls can feel a bit clunky here and there.

    While playing the first 20-30% of the game I just wanted to drop it, but I finished the game and it was not so bad.

    Technically it is obsolete even after the remaster - bad graphics, too weak game mechanic, simple and obvious story like from a 2005 year game. I was even angry at some moments because of the game's interface and controls - there is too much everything on the screen and    While playing the first 20-30% of the game I just wanted to drop it, but I finished the game and it was not so bad.

    I was even angry at some moments because of the game's interface and controls - there is too much everything on the screen and you can easy get confused among it before you learn how to use needed components.

    The good sides of the game are it's atmosphere and the dipping the more you go through the story. For me the main part of this dipping were the notes in which we learnt the lore of the world.

    So I won't play it again, but I will play the next part of series to learn what will happen further.    … Expand

    This game is an amazing FPS. Good challenging difficulty, cool levels, good story, fun action with cool enemies and a little bit of cool trippy visuals and story at certain parts.

    A more-or-less interesting post-apocalyptic plot set in the metro tunnels beneath Moscow almost manages to cover up the fact that this is a very standard horror shooter with very little to offer aside from some cool lore and a few memorable moments... almost.

    Immersive. Great story, true enough to the books. No no bugs, great graphics and performance on a PS4 Pro

    Классная игра, но душная засчет условностей реализма и сюжета. У меня всё.
