Just to be clear, this is not the same version as Metro: Last Light Redux, which is a remastered version of Last Light that was released back in 2014. As you might expect, the Complete Edition includes the base game, as well as all of the DLC.

The official Twitter account for the Metro series posted the announcement earlier today that from May 18 to May 25, players can grab the original Complete Edition of Metro: Last Light on Steam. That’s right, Metro: Last Light will be available for free for a limited time on Steam. With 4A Games’ Metro: Last Light turning the big 1-0 earlier this week (Neil and Jay covered the game on the Safe Room Podcast last week), the developer has decided to give those of you who still haven’t jumped into the Moscow Metro a chance to do so for free.

The Sinking City is also available on the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PC via Steam. Players who purchase the PS5 version of the game will receive the artbook automatically as a DLC at a later date. To coincide with the launch, Frogwares is putting together an extensive digital artbook that shows the game’s journey from conception to release. On top of the reduced price, PS+ subscribers will have an additional 30% off discount for the first two weeks of the game’s release. We’ll also be carefully looking at how we price all our future releases to try keep with this way of thinking.” In a statement by Serge Chervonnyi, Frogwares’ head of production, “As the sole owner and publisher of The Sinking City on PS5, we have chosen to price the game in a region that we feel is fair to players for this type of game. In order to ease the pain, Frogwares decided to drop the price of the PS5 version to 49.99 USD for the standard edition and 64.99 USD for the Deluxe Edition. The PS5 version is being self-published by Frogwares. The reasoning behind this is again due to the legal situation with Nacon, which owns the publishing rights on the PS4. Unfortunately, existing PS4 owners of the title will not have the option to a free upgrade.
