We know many of you can’t wait to get your hands on the next METRO, and are in desperate need of a wearable Spartan Helmet replica to add to your gaming collection. Well, the day has come to secure it!

We recently revealed that Blueprints are a new feature in METRO 2039, encouraging exploration and allowing you to craft upgrades and attachments for weapons and gear. The Specialist Pack pre-order bonus, available for all pre-ordered editions, gives you the opportunity to unlock one of these early. There are three upgrades to choose from, but you can only equip one at a time – choose wisely!

The Deluxe Edition also gives extra loot for the discerning stalker – both the immersive journey in music - the official game soundtrack and the gorgeous visuals of the concept art book are included, for both physical and digital editions. Not to mention access to the Story Expansion DLC to be released in 2027.

The Collector’s Edition, if you haven’t already seen it, is a great way to become a part of METRO history – featuring that wearable Spartan Helmet replica and the full contents of the Deluxe Edition and the pre-order bonus, it is the best way to become fully immersed in the world of METRO 2039.

We are excited to confirm that the METRO franchise has reached a significant milestone in its journey – we have officially sold 50 million copies of METRO games across the globe. We couldn’t be more proud of how far we have come from our debut release METRO 2033 16 years ago, and how our players have grown and supported us through everything since. As we approach our next big release, your excitement and enthusiasm has meant so much to us, and it inspires us every day.

As a huge thank you to our players, we’re announcing that a free update is coming for all owners of METRO 2033 Redux and METRO Last Light Redux that makes several improvements and enhancements for modern hardware.

For our longstanding Metro-dwellers, now has never been a better opportunity to return to the Metro tunnels. To relive the story, the action and feel the weight of the cold foreboding tunnels stretching ahead of you, filled with unknown horrors and adventure. Why not try a different playthrough approach this time round and get a different ending using the Karma system? Or simply immerse yourself back into the beautifully destroyed world.

For new players, it’s time to join the 50 million players who fell in love with our acclaimed METRO storytelling and prepare yourself for what’s in store for METRO 2039 come February 4th.

So, what have we done? This is not a full remaster or remake - the original METRO Redux experience and aesthetic has been preserved - but we have made careful, meaningful improvements to take advantage of the latest PC and console hardware. All platforms will include support for 4K textures, bringing greater depth and atmosphere to the haunting world of METRO. The update enhances gameplay immersion through improved animation fidelity, higher-quality audio and richer environmental detail. We have also managed to implement a range of community led bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements. 

The METRO Redux Next-Gen Update adds native support for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5 Pro and Xbox Series X|S, alongside platform-specific enhancements such as PSSR support on PlayStation 5 Pro, TSR upscaling and anti-aliasing support on Xbox Series X, and Spatial Audio support on Xbox platforms. Players on console can experience true 4K at 60FPS and upscaled 4K at 120FPS (with the right monitor or TV hardware), higher quality lighting, shadows and particle effects. Plus, we are supporting Adaptive Triggers for DualSense controllers and Impulse Triggers on Xbox controllers. Players will also benefit from hardware tessellation and displacement at runtime on consoles, Power Optimized Mode on Xbox and Power Saver Mode support for PlayStation.

With Xbox Handheld and Xbox Play Anywhere support, the journey through the Metro can continue wherever you choose.

For PC we have implemented DLSS support, spatial audio support as well as increased quality of life community bugfixes and frequently asked for improvements.  

Full patch notes detailing all technical improvements and platform-specific features will be revealed at launch, so this is just a taste for now.

Coming October 22, 2026, for PC, October 29, 2026, on consoles*, free for all existing owners of METRO 2033 Redux and METRO Last Light Redux on Steam, Epic Games Store, Windows Store, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
