Deep Silver and developer 4A Games announced today during the Gamescom 2019 episode of Inside Xbox that Metro Exodus Expansion I: The Two Colonels will launch tomorrow, August 20.
Here’s a brief overview of the first expansion of Metro Exodus:
The first story players will follow, The Two Colonels, is that of Colonel Khlebnikov, just below the surface, under the dead city of Novosibirsk, as he makes his way home to his son, Kirill, for New Year’s Eve.
But all is not well with the people here: the slime is further consuming the tunnels, mutant attacks appear to be on the rise and the precious ‘green stuff’ that protects the people from radiation poisoning is running low. In order to secure the survival of the people, those in charge may need to take drastic measures …
Following the journey and experiences of Khlebnikov during the last days of life in Novosibirsk, which Colonel Miller retraces a year later, players can expect the classic story-driven gameplay of the Metro series in this new linear chapter, complete with a brand new weapon, the deadly flame-thrower; claustrophobic environments; and the all-too-familiar hair-raising tension.
Check out the new reveal trailer that was shown today during the Inside Xbox episode:
Metro Exodus is available now for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Check back with us in a couple of days for our coverage.
