Deep Silver's upgraded compilation of the Metro series has received a release date. The upcoming collection of Metro: Last Light and Metro 2033 known as Metro Redux is set to arrive on PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 on August 26.
Metro Redux is a reality, re-building both Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light from the ground-up. In addition to massive upgrades, the two games will also allow players to play both games with the new Last Light improvements or in the vanilla style of 2033. Coming this summer to PC, PS4, and Xbox One either separately or as a tandem retail package.
Metro: Redux would include Last Light, some DLC, a soundtrack, art cards, and special packaging.
Metro: Last Light's second DLC pack, the "Tower" challenge pack, will be coming next week for $4.99.
One of the prettier PC games this year is heading to Mac and Linux. The OS X version of Metro: Last Light will be available on September 10th and it'll be developed in-house by 4A.
