Live action trailers are all the rage these days. However, few are as effective as this short film for Metro: Last Light. Taking place before the nuclear apocalypse of Last Light, the film shows a panicked crowd trying to head towards the Moscow Metro, built to serve as a refuge in case of an atomic attack. It's a rather dramatic piece, one that should reflect the grim tone developer 4A Games is going for with its upcoming first-person shooter.

        Yes it is a sequel to 2033 it was originally going to be known as Metro 2034 but that was changed to "Last Light" which is somehow even more awesome.

      I mean the video was pretty good, it sure hyped me up for this game even though I was already hyped up because I absolutely adored the first metro 2033.
