    Great price for a great game

  • Anyone played this on Quest 3 using a ROG Ally or Legion Go? If so could you please share your experience.

      This game is natively available on the Quest 3, that would be easier and smoother.

      • Oh nice, thanks. I'll look into that.

  • Got it in last sale on psvr2. Great metro vibes, and terrifying. It does have that screen door effect unfortunately but still a good time.

      Wouldn't that completely depend on the headset you're using not the game? I always thought screen door was due to the type of lenses you had.

      • I dug a little deeper after seeing your comment and in actual fact it isn't screen door effect but "mura" which is the graininess I am seeing, especially in dark places. There's tips online to try correct it and I think other games hide it (or don't have it at all) better than Metro.

          Interesting, I've never heard of that term before. I'll look into it, thanks

  • Is this a new game? is it VR only? I loved the metro games

      Very new, released November 7, 2024. You will need a VR headset to play the game.

      It's sold on Playstation.com, Meta Quest and Steam.

      • damn that sucks .. thnks

  • Just remember that 4A games didn't develop this game.

    There's a further discount in a "complete your collection" bundle if you already own Metro Exodus - showing as $35.67 for me.

    • Nice spot! Think I'll have to at that price! Anyone tried this on PSVR2 via the PC adapter?

  • Great game in VR on Quest 3, some of the best realism yet on that platform. Anyone buying it, it's more like the original Metro 2033 game and not Exodus.
