Metro Awakening releases; gets launch trailer

Fans of the Metro series, who happen to own a VR headset, will be happy to hear that Metro Awakening is out now. As such, it’s received a launch trailer.

A VR prequel to Metro 2033, Awakening is now available for PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest, Steam VR and Viveport. It’ll set you back $39.99 USD, or $49.99 for the special edition that contains additional cosmetics and a concept art gallery.

An arachnophobia mode will be added later, via patch, to make the tunnels spider free.

This standalone prequel to Metro 2033 follows Serdar, a doctor braving the tunnels in search of his missing wife. As his sanity is pushed to the limit, Serdar confronts the edge between life and death, ultimately awakening as Khan, the legendary mystic figure whose wisdom and understanding of the tunnels’ supernatural forces will echo through time, becoming the spiritual guide shaping the fate of those who dwell in the Metro depths.
