It may only run at 30fps, but it seemingly rarely deviates from it. What’s even more impressive is that performance is solid. In fact, I’ll go as far to say that they’re currently the best looking games on Switch. Of course, both games look their best when played in handheld mode, but they look nice blown up on a 4K TV, too. Unless you’re playing them side-by-side, you can’t really tell any difference, and that’s pretty impressive considering Switch hardware.
METRO 2033 REDUX SWITCH PS4
The answer is brilliantly they’re about as close to their PS4 and Xbox One counterparts as can be. So, you’re probably wondering how Metro 2033 Redux and Metro Last Light Redux play on Switch. Playing in Ranger mode is a truly transformative experience, making Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light some of the most tense games you can play.
And as if that’s not enough, you’ll also find that resources are scarcer, and enemies deadlier than ever. Play in Ranger mode and you’ll find that you have no heads-up display, taking away a crutch while also further immersing you in the action. It’s up to you, and there’s no penalisation for choosing one over the other.įor those really up for a challenge, Ranger mode is available, too. If you want to play the games more like first-person shooters, choose Spartan. If you want to bring the game’s horror, stealth and survival elements to the forefront, choose Survival. There are, of course, multiple difficulty levels available, but you can also choose to play either in Survival or Spartan mode. What perhaps really cements these Redux editions as the definitive versions of Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light, however, is the range of game modes available. While they’re not exactly up to modern standards, player animations are improved, too. All of the DLC released for the games is also included, and there are gameplay improvements such as being able to check your watch and supply of ammo on the fly. With Metro Last Light, developer 4A Games seemingly aimed to hone its craft that than revolutionise it.īeing the Redux versions of both Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light, the visuals are improved over the last-gen versions of the games released on consoles. It’s not a game changer, but you strangely get more attached to a weapon once you’ve put a scope on it and made some other adjustments. While in Metro 2033 Redux you’ll make do with the weapons you find, or can acquire with Military Grade Ammo that doubles up as currency, in Metro Last Light Redux you can also customise your weapons if you wish. If not against other humans, then certainly against ghastly beasts. Sometimes that’s impossible though even the most silent of assassins will find themselves in the occasional firefight. With ammo and other resources in short supply, it’s often better to try and avoid enemies or take them out silently. They’re both first-person shooters, but there’s a heavy emphasis on stealth. Gameplay-wise, its unsurprising that Metro 2033 Redux and Metro Last Light Redux are pretty much the same. He narrates during loading screens as you travel between areas, but if anyone talks to him during gameplay they get nada in return. Other than that, the only other issue you might find with Metro Redux‘s narrative is that Artyom is one of those mute protagonists.
Only one of the endings in each game is canonical, though, so if you only play through them once and get the ending that doesn’t set up the next game, you might find yourself at a bit of a loss.
There are multiple endings in both games, too, depending on the actions you take. It’s a story that runs through both Metro 2033 Redux and Metro Last Light Redux, twisting and turning as you progress. With multiple warring factions and the strange emergence of creatures known as the Dark Ones causing havoc, it’s up to you, Artyom, to find out exactly what’s going on and make the Metro safe again. There, a group of survivors have holed up in the underground Metro system where it’s relatively safe. Nuclear war has devastated the Earth, and among the countries badly hit is Russia. So, a quick catch up for those who have never played a Metro game. The next game to blow our socks off is actually two games in one – the Metro Redux bundle – and while their age means we probably shouldn’t be all that amazed they run on Switch so well, their parity with the PS4 and Xbox One versions is pretty much mind-blowing.
If there’s one thing we’ve learned over the last year or so, it’s to not underestimate the power of the Switch.įirst there was DOOM, then The Witcher 3: Complete Edition games that we thought really couldn’t be put on what is essentially a handheld but yet they were.
