Get a look at the first 7 minutes of Metro Awakening’s immersive, post-apocalyptic VR world

VR players were pretty stoked when they learned that one of the next games in the Metro series would be an immersive, story-driven VR Metro 2033 prequel for a handful of platforms and headsets.  Leading up to the next week’s release, Vertigo Games dropped off a video showcasing the first 7 minutes of gameplay (in flat non-VR footage of course), and although it won’t provide that VR experience, it should give us a good look as to what to expect.

Metro Awakening is going live on November 7th, 2024 for the PS VR2, Meta Quest, SteamVR  and Vive, and those who pre-order on select platforms will get access a couple of days earlier.  Check it out and stay tuned for more coverage.
