So, what's the big deal about Metro 2033 Redux? It's a 2014 remastered version of the original Metro 2033, which launched in 2010. The updated version brought the survival horror first-person shooter to PC, PS4, and Xbox One, building on the intense atmosphere of its predecessor. Developed by 4A Games, Metro 2033 kickstarted a popular series, followed by Metro: Last Light and Metro Exodus. Most recently there was also Metro Awakening, a VR spin-off.

The original Metro 2033 garnered an impressive Metacritic score of 81 and sold millions of copies, establishing 4A Games as a major player in the gaming world. As the game's description reads, "The year is 2033. An entire generation has been born and raised underground..."

You play as Artyom, born just before the cataclysm and raised in the Metro tunnels. A desperate mission compels you to venture into the heart of the Metro system. You're tasked with warning the remnants of humanity about an impending threat. Your journey will take you from the forgotten catacombs beneath the subway to the desolate wastelands above, where your decisions will shape the destiny of mankind.

While Metro 2033 Redux is an Xbox One game, it features FPS enhancements on the Xbox Series X|S. Expect to invest roughly 9 to 11 hours to complete the main story and completionists can expect to play for 20 to 25 hours.

Don't miss this opportunity to add a AAA title to your Xbox library for absolutely nothing. Head over to the Microsoft Store now and grab Metro 2033 Redux before time runs out!
