Metro: Last Light Redux

Metro Last Light with added safes from Pavel dlc and less achivements. Overall you can find more stuff and it takes less time to 100% if you are going for that sort of thing. If you want the full review check the one for the normal last light I wrote.

Last Light improves on many things from the first game and I really enjoyed the story as well. I cannot recommend the Metro series enough to anyone who reads this review!

The stealth was done WAY better than 2033 and the story was amazing. 10/10 game

Great sequel and follow up to the first one. I bought it when it was on sale after getting the first one for free. It has a lot more human enemy levels as the story is pretty much about a brewing war between nazis and communist, but the mutant sections are still great, tho mostly far in between.

Played and completed the game, with a partial second playthrough. Compared to Metro 2033 Redux, this entry leans more toward action and shooter mechanics than the mystery-driven, horror-tinged atmosphere of the first. But that shift in tone was a welcome change for me. The game looks even better visually, with smoother mechanics, upgraded gunplay, and a more refined feel overall. It kept what made Metro great, its dense, immersive world and oppressive atmosphere, but expanded the scope. The worldbuilding gets stronger here, with broader narrative arcs and a longer runtime. I found myself more deeply pulled into the setting, with the post-apocalyptic metro system continuing to feel alive and immersive. While the increased action slightly reduced the eerie tension of 2033, the trade-off is worthwhile in the form of more engaging combat and satisfying progression. I played the Redux version, which enhances the already strong presentation. The pacing is solid throughout, with few moments that drag. The atmosphere remains top-tier, and the audio design, visual storytelling, and environmental details all contribute to the lived-in feel of the world. For fans of story-driven shooters or anyone looking for a gripping, immersive single-player experience, Metro: Last Light Redux is a must-play. It's one of the strongest titles in the series and easily one of my favorite shooters overall.

The game is good but it glitches like crazy on modern systems (4090 RTX, i9 14900, Windows 11) when you try to play it at max details. None of the suggested workarounds you find on the internet will get rid of the glitches completely. When I played the game on my older laptop with Windows 10 it worked much better. Anyway. The game is a sequel to first one and follows Artyom on his journey through Moscow Metro ecosystem, You can feel the stench of soviet union everywhere you go. Visuals are spot on, the story is good, and the mechanics are good too. AI is pretty dumb but the game overall is fun to play if you forget the glitches it sometimes produces. For what it is and how old it is - perfect game. I will complete all the achievements for sure.

The second entry into the metro series. I don't know how I missed this while playing through these games originally. But well, better late than never. So the storytelling here is a bit of a side-grade as compared to the first game with a slight dip in quality. The beautiful environmental storytelling of the first game is a bit damp here. It is still masterful, but the subtlety of the first game is quietly kept aside for more direct form of story-telling. That is a shame, because the game does start of strongly in the subtlety department. More precisely, the entire Pavel section have some fantastic 'vibe management' (for lack of a better term), ----- SPOILER STARTS ----- which give a good uneasy feeling which builds up right upto the theatre section. There are also excellent npc conversations which add to the increasing claustrophobic environment you lead yourself into before the inevitable betrayal. Good stuff. ----- SPOILER ENDS ----- But post Pavel, such 'vibes' are kind of done away with, and we get a bit more traditional in terms of the narrative. The only place where I find the environment speak for itself was during the Bandit section when we have the Regina with us. That concerned me, because the traditional style of narrative in the first game consisted of pretty long walking-sections which can really slow the pace down to a crawl. This game also has a lot of such sections, but thankfully they are set-up a bit more properly. For example, a lot of the yapping happens during comparatively open sections (not saying that linear walkathons aren't there), so you end up listening to storybeats while scavenging for supplies. But on the flip side, the walk-with-me lore-dumps are somehow more drawn out in a couple of places. One of the more boring ones I remember is the walk through the quarantine zone. The good thing about such sections here is that there is no point in which you are forced to slog along such a section repeatedly if you happen to die somewhere in your playthrough. At least, that is the case if you are strictly talking about story sections. The story itself is pretty good. It is completely a human-focussed story with the mutants being sidelined and the dark-ones being relegated to a McGuffin role. Not a bad McGuffin, but still a McGuffin. However, that doesn't mean the story is harmed because of it. I would say that the story becomes much tighter due to the focus being streamlined on humanity and its woes. One of the endings of the first game is canonized in this game. I personally don't mind it since it avoids unnecessary complications and gets straight to the point. The gameplay is the same as the first one, with minor improvements to stealth. It is still janky stealth, but at least it is consistent with its jank. The gunplay is improved a bit, but some weapons don't feel nice to play. One of the fells-bad-man weapons is the dart shooter which, while doing good damage, just feels unresponsive on impact. The shotguns and snipers do feel punchy though, and same can be said for the assault rifles especially against human enemies. The set-pieces here are pretty good. Even if none of them match the Library section of the first game, there are more good set-pieces in quantity here. Some of the ones I really enjoyed are - The Regina section especially in the Bandit hideout (Best section of the game imo), the section right before we regroup with Anna and the lead-up to Lesnitsky. Good set-ups here. And there are some boss fights here as well, although they aren't anything to write home about. But they are serviceable. Big Momma has a pretty good build up to her, even if the fight itself was average. Exploration again has two aspects - morality points and diary entries. Although there is a level-specific hallucination collectible that is tied to an achievement in one of the stages. The obscure morality system is still there, but its effect on the ending is debatable. I mean, it could play absolutely no role in the ending as well and it might actually be a completely Bioshock 2 type of morality system - I absolutely have no idea. However, some conversation-based morality points are so mind numbingly drawn out that I yawned 5 times during one of them (The Secret Metro Tunnel conversation - you'll know when you get there). So if the morality system has no effect on the ending - I'd unironically say well-fucking-done. Collectibles are the same as the first game. Pretty well placed and paced, while giving good context to the actions of our semi-silent protagonist. This game also has quite a few DLC's, most of which are perspective stories set during the events of the game itself. However, a stand out among them is the souvenir collecting DLC which I found very enjoyable to play. I don't know how these DLC's were sold, but as a bundled item, all of these are solid additions to the game - all 10ish of them. _____ All in all, a fantastic sequel which is overall a sidegrade of the first game in terms of quality. If you liked the first game, you must play this as well. I have no idea how I missed this during my original playthrough. 8/10

this game is perfect if you are feeling bored.And if you dont have any other games.Also can just be played if you are feeling like you want action or guns in your game. Buy the game, you will have fun!

Metro: Last Light delivers an incredible atmosphere. Once again, you find yourself deep in the dark, claustrophobic tunnels of Moscow’s metro, and the world-building is absolutely spine-chilling. The graphics are a clear step up from the previous game — lighting, details, and animations are all very impressive. The sound design also perfectly supports the mood, fully immersing the player. Gunplay and combat mechanics are much smoother and more satisfying compared to Metro 2033. The stealth elements are also better implemented this time around. In terms of gameplay variety, Last Light definitely builds on what Metro 2033 started. Without giving away any story spoilers: the narrative fits the atmosphere perfectly — it’s gripping and character-driven, keeping you engaged throughout. That said, Metro 2033 leaned a bit more into exploration and the raw "survival" feel. Last Light offers a more action-oriented and cinematic experience. In short, if you enjoyed Metro 2033, Metro: Last Light will absolutely satisfy you. It pushes the series forward in terms of gameplay, atmosphere, and storytelling. Edit: Damn (Артем) Artyom Such An Underrated Character ı did love (Артем) Artyom

One of the greatest—if not the greatest—series of post-apocalyptic horror games I’ve ever played. Truly amazing. Also improved on so many things that 2033 did good. Apart from the atmosphere in some situations. Coming of the metro for the first time with Burbon was an experience I'll never forget.

more of the first while lacking some of the charm of 2033's world and story.

The Metro series is just phenomenal. I'm prob in the minority though when I say that I think the first 2 games are better. The 3rd game has you leaving the metro, and the metro is where I think this game is the most fun. On the other end, I believe this one is the best entry. You must face the ramifications of your action in the first game and you get a "sidekick" that I think is more interesting than a lot of the more modern instances of the trope. And also being outside is really intense in this game unlike Metro Exodus. I think all 3 games are good, but please don't skip the first 2.

Je trouve que metro last light est une bonne suite de metro 2033 L'histoire est sympa et le gameplay est amélioré par rapport au premier

I played this straight after the first Metro and was expecting this to be the same okish kinda game however this game was deffo the better one. has enough in it to keep you going without getting bored. Onto the third game! :)

Incredible game for something made in 2014. Good story. Good plot twists. Just overall an amazing game and definitely worth buying the 3 In 1 pack when it's on sale (2033, Last Light, Redux)

Great storytelling and a great continuation the 2033 story, expanding upon some key plot points of the game. The gunplay is still clunky, but better than in the previous installment. It is also longer than the previous game but the general core elements such as the weapons, mechanics, movement, quick-time events etc. all remain the same. It expanded on the universe of Metro as a whole very well while keeping the original spirit of the game more or less intact. Great entry and a great story all in all and the canon ending, being dependent on moral points in this one, contrary to the first game, also makes for a really good overall experience, especially if you are playing the games back to back like me, before moving on to Exodus. I am excited to see where the game and storytelling goes from here.

Great post apocalypse game for those who want a survival game experience.

Me gustó. Al principio se hace tedioso pero va agarrando ritmo (lento, pero interesante) y claramente el punto más fuerte que tiene es la historia, por lo que es muy recomendable jugar el anterior para no perderse detalles. Ni tampoco dejar mucho tiempo entre juegos (cosa que hice) porque se omiten guiños del juego anterior y detalles que son importantes para entender porque está pasando lo que pasa. La jugabilidad está bien, varias veces sentí algo injusta la dificultad hardcore, pero es un juego viejo y es entendible. Dentro de todo, está bueno.

A beautiful FPS game for the man who wishes to be immersed in another world. Truly one of the most unique games I've played (and thoroughly enjoyed) of the genre. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants an engaging experience in an FPS with some level of difficulty or resource scarcity.

This is year after metro 2033, when world and this location Moscow is scorched ruins and only underground radiation is bearable. We get Russian Nazists, and Communistst to meet in this story, depiced from books. And besides apocalipse, perhaps of saint's. We get Ebola Virus pandemic inside last resort stronhold, the moscow metro. Who spred it?! Spoiler! It was communists to fight Spartans and all the rest. In metro 2033 we get two ending, this 2024(Last Light) takes aproche of the bad one. When we destroy the dark ones home's on surface in the city with nucleal compoud, louching the remaining miscles, like in Planet of the Apes. The dark ones look very much alike aliens from Area 51, is it some concept of bio/radiation hazard commando armor? Spartan has to move to new station D 6, but D stands for Directive like Directive K, 5th Directorate (Political police); 6th Directorate (Counter-Intelligence Support for the economy), station that we just discovered back in metro 2033, at the very end, with commuters, like command cetre of the old days. In this game we can make frends with child dark one, a powerfull mutant, who can mess with mind and re-live the past. At the very start, we kill our own people, by delusion made by the dark ones. Madness. But radiation seems to work that way on people, we got visions of the past, and shadows of the dead. It has some horrro element to it. Actual communists, as far as I know committed crime of needle piercing soft heads of newborn babes, and killing them by this method, to control burst of births. Expecially Chinese but Russian, as far as I know, did that to. To the worst, my uncle, brother of my father, has 5 neurological disabilities, afther as a child was "accidentaly" staped with scalpel to the skull. His cerebral fluid was incresend in diameters, and head was swolen, to the fact that he was child of my grandparends, doctor and major Pilot of Polish Air Force. Besides For Alexis de Tocqueville, the Revolution as a reaction to these flaws, but also argued that the post-Revolutionary state, in many ways, was as tyrannical as the old regime, with its ideals corrupted and forgotten. Tocqueville was a self-identified liberal and a figure on the French centrist-left. However, his political thought in the twentieth century has increasingly become associated with the conservative Right, especially in the United States. Meaning that the communist rule was another type of tyranny, and this should be seen as such. Marx never thought of bloodless revolution of 1688 as good, for he thought that William of Orange gave power to welthy, to the usurper. Never considering the very reach and top noch of oxfrod type of ox is material for not only rule, but also to serve, like king'es. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwovfRiBMSw

The tunnels get bigger and the world gets deadlier, but the atmosphere never lets up. Sharpened gameplay and better combat make every encounter thrilling and nerve-wracking. 10/10. Would sneak through mutants and gunfire again.

Very immersive, and really good story telling. Top of the top recommended game (with the other two of course) to be played.

Fuck 'em Nazis, Commies and Mutants, all are equal before my fully loaded customized Gatling Shotgun

The story and length were definitely better and longer than Metro Redux 2033, I was more tense, it is the continuation of the previous series, the stories are connected but the cons of the previous game are also present in this one, unfortunately there is no window mode, sound control cannot be done while in the game and taking steam screenshots does not work, there was a bug in the second to last part where the bear was chasing us, the bear was killed by other monsters before breaking the escape route and I could not kill those monsters, they were immortal, so I had to restart it, in general it was a very good game, Artyom died, I will move on to the next game, by the way, Anna's tits were great, it was a good pleasure to fuck her xd

Directly continues from 2033 and the campaign is for the most part is a smoother experience. The story of Last Light details even further into how truly miserable it would be to be living in what may as well just be 100% human-produced hell. It still has very similar overall issues to 2033 Redux; and Last Light's morality system is one of the worst I've ever seen in a game especially since it's very easy to get the non-canon ending because of it. Last Light as an overall game (thanks to the continued story and some campaign refinements) apparently clicked with me more than 2033 though. Pretty obvious to me at this point that these games aren't going to be for everyone, but they're worth playing through at least once.

Dark and moody, violent and terrifying, excellent follow up to 2033. Great storyline with solid characters, writing, direction, and performances. Terrifying and brutal gameplay. Very fun

this is a master sequal to metro 2033, i say even better then metro 2033. mainly due to the DLCs which were fun things to do after completing the game, ive done mainy playthroughs of every metro game, and metro 2034 is possible, the best outcome to connect metro 2033 to exodus, now the one flaw i do have to say is the love life of artyom is rushed with anna, that bitch went from calling us worthless rabits to her baby boo in less then a week, and i know her fine ass aint that down bad

One of the best post-apocalyptic games out there if you like the dark atmosphere then you will love it and the action is good too and story is amazing. Good luck Ranger. Tip: not really a SPOILER but since the game doesn't have any choice to get endings I'll write this how to get the endings i don't exactly know how to get the good points but here are some tip- To get the good ending (which is canon) try not to kill anyone even npc hostiles try to knock them out stealtily (dont kill just knock em out) and also dont kill people who surrender and i think you have to interact with a few musical objects to get good points they had some in Metro 2033 but i dont exactly know if it works in last light too

I played this game so much on the xbox 360, but I did not expect it to be this buggy on pc, for some reason the middle section of the game crashes constantly, but the beginning and ending sections didn't give a single crash, I also couldn't pick up any pistols or I got an immediate crash too for some reason.

I cant finish the game because it keep freezing and lagging especially on last mission LAST BATTLE despite Im usinng ryzen 7 7800x3d and latest nvidia gpu 5 series

gameplay is okay, a bit clunky at times and animations are dated, but you mainly play this because of the story and atmosphere. but man the dialogues are one of the cringiest in video game history. every npc dialogue you encounter is like out of a comical c movie. the cliche of a strong russian who holds a prostitute in his left and a bottle of vodka in his right arm while insulting others mothers, flexing his very strong muscles and laughing like a idiot- yes its really that dumb. totally takes me out of it everytime i hear such kind of dialogue while sneaking around enemies or walking through a city. who wrote this trash? on top of that the dialogues are so damn slow it makes your brain melt especially when you died or need to reload from last checkpoint only to hear all that shit again.

Okay not gonna lie but I love metro games, I already played metro 2033 and honestly as of now all I have to say about this one is fuck Pavel for making me believe we were friends.

A great follow-up to the already highly praised original game. This sequel sets new standards for the series, and improves on the original in pretty much every single way!

AK loaded, lighter ready, butthole clenched, pants soiled.

It's basically a CoD type game with a single corridor from the beginning till the end. Terrible shooting experience, almost no feedback after hitting. Too many boring cutscenes that cannot be skipped. Annoying English accent.

Feedback for Developers and Steam: Please Include FPS Limit Options in All Games I’d like to highlight how important it is for all games on Steam to include a built-in FPS limit option. This should be considered a basic feature, because: Many users rely on FPS limiting for technical reasons or to reduce power consumption. Some hardware (like laptops or lower-end PCs) may overheat or behave unpredictably without the ability to cap frame rates. V-Sync or other adaptive solutions are not always enough or suitable for every setup. It would also be extremely helpful if Steam could introduce a filter in the store that allows users to sort or exclude games that don’t support an FPS limiter. This would prevent situations where someone buys a new game only to discover it doesn’t work well on their system due to this missing feature. This would be a small change for most developers, but a huge improvement in accessibility and user experience. Thanks for reading, and I hope both developers and the Steam team take this into consideration.

Reviewing (mostly) every game (or DLC) in my library, part 39: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/10 [i] Metro: Last Light Redux [/i] takes everything [i] 2033 Redux [/i] built—its haunting atmosphere, brutal survival mechanics, and unique world—and turns the dial all the way up. Bigger, better, and bolder, [i] Last Light [/i] is the rare sequel that enhances rather than abandons its roots. If [i] 2033 [/i] was your first taste of the Metro, [i] Last Light [/i] is the full-course meal. A masterpiece of post-apocalyptic storytelling wrapped in bullets, shadows, and gas masks. ☣️ [b] Pros: [/b] [list] [*] Gorgeous visuals, even years later. Whether you’re navigating crumbling tunnels or stepping into eerie sunlit ruins, the game looks stunning—especially for a post-apocalyptic world. [*] Tighter, more polished combat. Gunplay feels more refined than in [i] 2033. [/i] Weapons hit harder, stealth is smoother, and encounters feel better balanced between tension and chaos. [*] Larger and more diverse environments. There’s more surface exploration, more side paths, and more to see. The world feels less like a tunnel and more like a crumbling open-air tomb. [*] Stronger narrative focus. While still linear, the story is more character-driven. There’s more dialogue, more faction intrigue, and more exploration of moral themes and what’s left of humanity. [*] Still deeply immersive. Minimal HUD, gas mask maintenance, ammo economy, checking your watch—all the best immersive touches are back. [*] Replayable moral choices. Subtle decisions and player behavior shape your ending, without ever waving it in your face. [/list] 🌫️ [b] Cons: [/b] [list] [*] Occasional AI hiccups. Enemies might still act unpredictably or miss obvious cues. [*] Linear structure remains. While there's more environmental diversity, you’re still on rails—but for this series, that’s not necessarily a bad thing. [/list]

Boring, drab, Russian, boring, repetitive, boring.

10/10 Would play again in 4 years when I forget most of the story

The game worth the 30 hours spent on all the achievements!!!

Metro: Last Light Redux, developed by 4A Games and released in 2014, is an FPS blending action and stealth, serving as the sequel to Metro 2033. This remastered title delivers an intense experience in a post-apocalyptic universe that is as captivating as it is terrifying. The story takes place in 2034, one year after the events of Metro 2033. After destroying the Dark Ones’ lair in the Botanical Gardens with a missile barrage from the TV Tower, Artyom awakens in the D6 base, haunted by a strange nightmare. Now a Ranger of the Spartan Order, he learns that at least one Dark One has survived. His mission? Track down this creature and put an end to its existence. The dark, captivating narrative heightens the immersion. The world of Metro: Last Light Redux is a true tour de force. The dank, putrid, and grim tunnels of the Moscow metro are littered with corpses, cobwebs, and vermin. Mutants lurking in the shadows attack on sight, while human factions, such as the Reds or the Reich, clash in fierce power struggles. The surface is just as hostile, with irradiated wastelands covered in rusted cars, gutted buildings, and wild vegetation. Monstrous creatures abound, and a moment’s delay can be fatal. A small piece of advice: don’t linger too long out there. Graphically, the game impresses with detailed environments and superb lighting effects that enhance the oppressive atmosphere. The meticulous art direction makes every location unsettling, from claustrophobic tunnels to the snow-covered ruins above ground. The sound design is particularly striking: the guttural roars of mutants, the howling wind on the surface, or the ticking of a gas mask running low on filters create constant tension. These sound elements, combined with a subtle but effective soundtrack, plunge the player into a state of perpetual alertness. Metro: Last Light Redux offers a skillful blend of brutal action and stealth. Artyom confronts human and supernatural threats with a varied arsenal, ranging from makeshift revolvers to heavily modified rifles equipped with silencers. Weapons, customizable with sights, upgraded magazines, or night vision scopes, provide great freedom in combat approaches. You can go in guns blazing, but stealth is often more strategic. Extinguishing light sources, silently knocking out enemies, or eliminating them quietly, much like in Sniper Elite, allows you to progress while avoiding direct confrontations, making for a more serene experience. Survival is, of course, at the heart of the experience. You’ll need to manage your resources with utmost care: gas masks, filters, medkits, and ammunition are essential to survive the hostile environments. You’ll always feel vulnerable despite your preparation, especially during surface excursions where time is limited, and enemies are ravenous. Despite its qualities, the game is not without flaws. The enemy AI can be unpredictable, particularly during stealth sections, where guards might swing from complete blindness to instant detection, which can be frustrating. Animations, especially for climbing or descending ladders, are painfully slow, mirroring the irritation they cause. These technical issues, though minor overall, can be disruptive during tense moments. Metro: Last Light Redux is a remarkable narrative FPS, driven by a unique atmosphere and solid gameplay. The game offers a rich experience, an unforgettable journey through the bowels of Moscow. If you’re a fan of titles like Fallout or STALKER, this is a must-play in the same vein. Its immersive world and oppressive atmosphere make it a gem of the post-apocalyptic genre.
