6. Metro Exodus

Gamers are such strange creatures… They seem to want novelty and freshness, but they don't really care for them at all. As soon as the creators of some popular series try to change too much in the new installment, even if they end up creating the best game in the world, they will still get a ton of flak from the orthodox part of the community. This was the fate of Exodus, the third instalment of the Metro series, which decided to break with the limitations of Moscow's underground complex, transferring the action to the surface and replacing linear corridors with open maps. Many people did not take such revolutions well. But whoever gave the devs a chance wasn’t disappointed.

In the game we once again play the role of Artyom, who, together with his companions, uses the train Aurora to travel through destroyed Russia and look for traces of normal life beyond Moscow. Their journey takes us into a wide variety of atmospheric locations, allowing us to get onvolved with the characters and get to know the setting from a completely different angle.

Exodus is an FPS that perfectly balances narrative and gameplay, so the engaging story goes toe to toe with satisfying combat with mutated enemies. The devs have also managed to find the golden mean between the classic, linear structure and giving players the freedom to act within partially open maps. It’s a must-play title for genre lovers and fans of the series!
