GameWatcher heads topside to search for the Metro 2039 release date, platforms, story details, and more.
The latest game in the sci-fi horror shooter franchise based on Dmitry Glukhovsky’s best-selling book series is emerging from the darkness and taking us back into the heart of post-apocalyptic Moscow.
4A Games will explore a new chapter in the story of Metro, set three years after the events of Metro Exodus.
What do we know about the Metro 2039 release date, though? Where will the story take us? And where can we play it? Let’s take a closer look, shall we?
Metro 2039 Release Date
At June 2026’s Xbox Showcase, we learned of a Metro 2039 release date window. Not exactly zeroed in, but February 2027 will certainly do for now.
Metro 2039 Story
For a quarter century, the last survivors of nuclear war have been locked in bitter conflict deep in the Metro tunnels beneath the poisoned city of Moscow. Now, finally, they have been united by a single leader, a fanatical Spartan known as Hunter.
Hunter’s Novoreich regime rules through propaganda and fear, subjugating the population in the name of a new war for the surface against a dark and terrifying enemy.
In the wilderness beyond the city, the reclusive Stranger is haunted by violent waking nightmares. When the ghosts of his past force him out of exile, he must undertake a harrowing journey into the shattered ruins of Moscow.
Metro 2039 Gameplay
As with previous Metro games there will be a mixture of exploration, survival, stealth, and combat to contend with as you travel across the ruins of Moscow.
So expect an intense journey where threats come in all shapes and sizes, both in the vast expanses of the post-apocalyptic wasteland and in the claustrophobic confines of the Metro.
Metro 2039 Platforms, Pre-Orders, and Prices
Metro 2039 will be released on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
No price just yet, but you can wishlist the game on all three storefronts.
