Metro Exodus: Enhanced Edition

Metro Exodus on PS5 is one of the best survival wastelands to explore on the new console. With enhanced textures, stunning ray-tracing and global illumination, and immersive DualSense implementation, what is on offer here is an experience like no other. If you skipped it on PS4 or want to play again, there are ample enhancements here that make the Moscow Wasteland worth exploring all over again.

One of PS4’s best and most underrated shooters pulls out all the stops on PS5. A technical marvel that goes full steam ahead on Sony’s new console. [Issue#4, p.76]

Metro Exodus on PS5 is the ultimate version to play. The visuals are better than ever, and the DualSense implementation is remarkable.

Despite looking pretty impressive the first time round, the visual upgrades alone to Metro Exodus make it a worth entry in the PS5’s catalogue. It might help to play the others first, but when this is the conclusion, it looks and plays too good not to. Just work on those trigger-pulling muscles for the haptic feedback.

Metro Exodus looks and plays better than ever before on consoles with this version. Exodus is a great game, and whether you haven’t played it yet or just want to replay it, the ray tracing and the DualSense’s features makes it worth your time.

Metro Exodus debuts on next-gen platforms with a substantially improved version, with higher resolution, 60 FPS and the implementation of ray tracing.

Is Metro Exodus: Enhanced Edition worth picking up? It absolutely is for the price it’s being sold at. It’s a little over 30 quid/dollars and with the DLC and took me about 20-25 hours to get through with a young puppy in the house. It obviously includes the base game, but also comes with the story DLC that came out with the expansion pass. Both add new narrative beats to the game. But where Metro Exodus: Enhanced Edition really lets itself down is the execution of the world it is based in. Sure, crafting an arsenal to butcher hundreds of faceless bandits is fun. But Metro Exodus’ complex post-apocalyptic world has such a deep lore, begging to explored properly.

I absolutely loved this game recommend to everyone. Its immersive and lets you stall the story so much like an open world game. Plus it could even go up against American big budget games in my opinion.

I didn't play previous version of the game, but for that one I could say, that in some parts it looks really good, but there also are moments when the game looks too old. Generally, the game itself is just a little bit upgraded part of the previous ones, a logical continuation of the corridor game, which tries to flirt with the open world. At some moment it is too boring and drawn out, some places are more interesting. But in common the story and the characters' actions are predictable, dialogues are are stretched out. Monsters look like monsters from 2007 game and many many other questions. But on the whole, the game still gives the impression of a sturdy middle-class man. For example, I really liked the Taig" location and the Collonells' DLC.

Endless cutscenes and talkative characters drag it down, but gameplay loop is fine.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

What an overrated game. The graphics look nice and ooooh shiny at times but are not consistent. The music soundtrack is forgettable. The character models look dated. The protagonist Artyom is silent the entire game. It does not help that it feels like he has the dexterity of a 2 year old. If you fall off a ledge a few feet he dies. I mean come on. The controls feel clunky, dated, and unintuitive. I constantly feel like my character is walking through mud. Running feels awkward and is assigned as a toggle function. What is this 1995? You constantly have to wipe your mask. Fun eh? The story is predictable. Oh there is a lot of talking in this game. The dialogue is excessive and downright annoying. This game does not look impressive on the PS5. The open world seems too big. Overall, Metro Exodus is one lackluster turd ****. There are just too many other FPS games that do everything better.
