Coming in 2012, THQ has confirmed that it is working on a sequel to the horror survival game, Metro 2033 for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3.

The setting of Metro: Last Light will be the haunting, desolate ruins of post-apocalyptic Moscow. Developer 4A Games says it will deliver a terrifying, atmospheric single-player adventure that fuses thrilling combat with exploration and survival horror to create a unique, memorable experience.

“We believe that Metro 2033 was a flawed masterpiece,” said Danny Bilson, EVP Core Games, THQ.

“It was a beautiful, original game that didn’t get the marketing support it needed. We won’t make that mistake with Metro: Last Light. This game improves on the original in every way – it will have more polish, deeper and more sophisticated gameplay, and satisfyingly visceral combat, without losing what our fans loved about the original. Metro: Last Light is another artful piece of game development from an Eastern European studio that will thrill and terrify anyone looking for a more cerebral experience than your typical first person shooter.”


Metro: Last Light pitches the player into the midst of a desperate civil war for control over a doomsday device that threatens to destroy humanity forever. Beneath the ruins of post-apocalyptic Moscow, in the tunnels of the Metro, you hold the key to humanity's survival...

More details are expected to surface at E3 this week.
