- A new Metro game has been in the works for multiple years at this point.
- 4A Games’ social media activity has ramped up this month, suggesting the team is building up to an official reveal.
- Gamescom Opening Night Live is scheduled for next month, setting the stage for an official announcement soon.
A brand new Metro game has been in the rumor mill for well over a year now. Although 4A Games released Metro Awakening VR earlier last year, fans still yearn for another fully-fledged AAA release based on the IP.
After skipping multiple events and remaining silent, it seems 4A Games is finally ready to share more on the future of Metro. Recent social media activity from the studio suggests that a new reveal is being prepared for a big game.
Why it matters: Metro Exodus went on to sell over 10 million copies and became one of the series’ best-received entries to date. Needless to say, excitement remains high for the future of the IP.
Back in February, the official 4A Games Twitter account confirmed that work on the next major release was progressing swiftly, and the same account has now become more active than ever.
In fact, the month of July has seen a significant increase in activity on the account, suggesting that the team is teasing Metro’s future. A specific tweet referring to ‘New Metro’ has added further fuel to the fire, and a member of the social media team has even relocated to Malta for better collaborations with the studio.
All of this activity ahead of Gamescom could mean a new reveal is on the horizon. Because Gamescom’s Opening Night Live is scheduled for August 19, an official announcement could be in place for this date.
It is also worth noting that reliable sources previously reported that 4A Games’ next project was in a very playable state last year. Therefore, all the stars seem to be aligning for a major reveal.
What do you think about the teasers? Do you expect to see a Metro-related announcement at Gamescom? Let’s discuss in the comments and on the Tech4Gamers Forums.
