About Metro 2039

4A Games returns to the tunnels under Moscow. Metro 2039 is set a quarter century after the bombs, with the warring stations finally pulled under one authoritarian order called Novoreich, run by a Spartan named Hunter whom series veterans will recognize from the other side of the ledger. You do not play Artyom this time. The protagonist is a figure called the Stranger, drawn back underground by nightmares he cannot shake, into a fight over what the Metro is going to become rather than simply who survives it.

Deep Silver publishes it on February 4, 2027, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC, pushed back from an earlier winter 2026 window. The appeal of these games has always been specific: ammunition scarce enough to work as currency, gas masks that crack and fog, and levels that reward moving quietly over shooting. This one is built on that frame rather than reinventing it, and early footage leans back toward the enclosed tunnels after the open maps of Exodus.
