About
Metro: Last Light Redux is a 2014 story-driven shooter that combines gripping survival horror, exploration, and tactical combat in a post-apocalyptic setting. This definitive version was rebuilt using the latest iteration of the 4A Engine for next-generation hardware, making it a significant upgrade over the original. It stands out as one of the finest narrative-focused shooters available, offering an epic adventure that emphasizes atmosphere and strategic gameplay alongside intense action sequences.
Metro: Last Light Redux remains moderately demanding by modern standards, though it's far more accessible than some contemporary AAA titles. The game requires a minimum of 2GB RAM and scales well across different GPU tiers—older mid-range cards like the GTX 960 can handle solid FPS at medium settings, while newer GPUs will unlock high framerates at maximum graphics quality. Benchmark testing shows that the game's performance is relatively predictable across hardware configurations, making it useful for performance comparison data.
With an 80/100 critical rating, Metro: Last Light Redux is absolutely worth playing if you enjoy story-driven shooters with strong atmosphere. The definitive Redux version is the best way to experience this acclaimed title, delivering both engaging narrative and solid technical performance across PC hardware.
Performance profile
Released in August 2014, Metro: Last Light Redux sits in the DirectX 11 generation. Comfortable on any modern mid-range GPU at 1440p; even an RTX 3050 or RX 6600 typically delivers 4K60 at High settings.
Metro: Last Light Redux is latency-sensitive: a high refresh-rate monitor (144 Hz+) and consistent 1% low framerate matter more than raw averages. Aim for a GPU that delivers 20–30% more headroom than the "just 60 FPS" tier to keep frame pacing smooth during intense fights.
Extremely light — Metro: Last Light Redux runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.
Storyline
The game picks up after the bad ending from Metro 2033, in which Artyom delivers a devastating attack on the mysterious supernatural race known as the Dark Ones. The station-cities of the Metro struggle for power using weapons found in D6. The player follows Artyom, the main protagonist from Metro 2033, as he searches for the mysterious "Prisoner", the supposed “key to survival – the last light in our darkest hour…”
