New Story, Characters and Gameplay Systems
This next installment in the Metro series focuses on a new voiced lead that players will take control of named the Stranger. As described by the team, he finds himself returning to the Metro after previously swearing he would never return.

But fans of the series shouldn’t worry, familiar characters like Hunter will be back. It was recently revealed that Hunter is still alive and is now the leader of the Novoreich.
