Yeah, the new artwork poster shows a lot (only a few new types), though I didn't attempt to make out the names. Is this an actual translation of the terminology? (official or otherwise)

[Jig McGalliger]

Purely speculative
1. Demon
2. Big Armored shrimp (boss fight in later Last Light)
3. ???
4. Smaller, unarmored shrimp (in the Venice river/early swamp)
5. Caterpillar
6. Lurker
7. [Scorpo-Spider]
8. Bat/smaller demon
9. [Bear]
10. [Wolf]
11. Nosalis
12. [Deer]
13. [Crow]
14. Watchmen (independent looking chemleon eyes)
15. Humanimal

These are not all the non-human enemies we will see, as already shown by the trailers, but still a good look and great defnintion of what to expect.

Well, as far as my translation ability [speaking both languages] goes (:
Definitely not an official description.

If you look close enough - another interesting element is the art canvas itself appears to indicate different fragments of the world's areas and seasons we would be able to play in; from left to right the cycle seams to be in the following order: Spring > Summer > Autumn and Winter.

Just speculating whether it would be a pattern of an actual time-line ..

Yes that background is meant to reflect the game's timeline. The entire game takes place over the entire year of 2036 with the early prologue areas being in Moscow towards the end of the 2035-36 winter, after that there is the marshlands/swamps areound the Volga river (spring), the northern Ryn desert (summer), the forests of northern Kazakhstan (autumn) and finally what appears to be the Siperian wastes (winter).

This is all based on both official info and some educated assumptions.

Here's a bit more :

The Volga (set during a snowswept Spring), The Caspian (an arid Summer setting), and The Taiga (set in Autumn).

The Caspian? Hmm, I knew it was the Ryn desert but I honestly wasn't expecting them to go that far south. To get anywhere near the Caspian sea they would have to head almost directly south from Moscow.

Exactly my thoughts .. Interesting why they've chosen that direction.
I always though that Metro series would lead us to the Ural Mountains at some point though .. wondering if they will be heading towards China )

That's where the remnants of the Russian government are supposed to have fled to, but that's just a rumour.
