 Deep Silver and 4A Games are bringing Metro Redux to Nintendo Switch, a double pack which contains definitive versions of both Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light.
Players can approach the campaigns in one of two modes; Survival, in which you’ll experience the game “as a slow burn survival horror” due to the lack of ammunition and filters for your gas mask, or Spartan, where these items are more prevalent.
The boxed edition of the game comes with both campaigns and DLC on a single 16GB cartridge, while those who want to buy the digital version will be able to download Metro 2033 Redux and Metro Last Light Redux individually from the Nintendo e-Shop. There’s no word on whether the final instalment in the series, Metro Exodus, is coming to Switch. Metro Redux is out 28 February on Nintendo Switch. Are you looking forward to the series’ Switch debut? Let us know below.

Players will have to “prove their worth” before taking on the island's iconic, 60km Snaefell Mountain course by competing in a series of road races, earning upgrades that can be tested out in the game world. There’s no solid release date just yet, with the game said to be releasing on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC sometime during the “first semester” of this year.
