The THQ and Deep Silver confirmed that the next "Metro" is in development, but will not be released until after 2017. Fans should not expect the new game to come soon, but the good news is, the developer 4A Games are planning to release the next "Metro" game with a lot of gem features.
As per the Polygon said in their report, the developer 4A Games stated the next "Metro" game should not expect to come out next year. 4A Games commits to release a news and update once everything is settled upon as they added.
In a press release by the Gamespot, a Metro 2035 website announced that game is set to launch this coming 2017. "Metro" 2035 is known to be the final chapter of the novel created by Dmitry Glukhovsky.
The said website has all the timeline of the released date of all the video games and books. There is a note that hints the release date of the new "Metro" game that is said to come out next year.
It has come to every fan's idea that the new "Metro" game will be seen this 2017 since for that long, 4A Games are not releasing any comment for all the rumors lurking around. The game developer 4A Games only confirmed recently that they are working on the new game called Arkita, which is a VR game.
Today, 4A Games finally announced that the next "Metro" game or the "Metro" 2035 will be released only after 2017. That is good to know to end the rumors, but it is sad to know that fans will need to wait another year before they can put their hand on the next sequel.
On the other hand, 4A Games admitted that they are working on two games as of the moment. With this, it's pretty safe to think that aside from Arkita, the 4A Games are also working on the next "Metro" game.
