help Metro 2033 Redux FAQ
Should a first-time player choose Survival or Spartan mode in Metro 2033 Redux?
Survival emphasizes scarce supplies, slower handling and the survival-horror rhythm of the original Metro 2033. Spartan provides more resources and action-oriented handling modeled after Metro: Last Light.
Is Metro 2033 Redux only a graphical remaster?
No, 4A Games rebuilt it using the improved engine and gameplay framework developed for Metro: Last Light. Redux changes lighting, AI, controls, animations, weapon handling and stealth rather than merely increasing the display resolution.
How does ammunition work in Metro 2033 Redux?
Ordinary cartridges are combat ammunition, while high-grade prewar military rounds also function as currency in the Moscow Metro. Firing those valuable rounds can improve damage but literally spends money that could have purchased filters or equipment.
Which platforms can run Metro 2033 Redux?
The 2014 release appeared on Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and a Nintendo Switch version followed later. It is also commonly sold with Metro: Last Light Redux as the two-game Metro Redux package.
