Attention, Xbox fans! If you’ve ever wanted to dive into the haunting, atmospheric world of Metro 2033, now’s your chance. Microsoft and developer 4A Games have just dropped a surprise treat: Metro 2033 Redux is completely free to claim on Xbox for a limited time. The offer, running from May 30 to June 5, gives players on Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S the opportunity to add this critically acclaimed survival-horror title to their libraries permanently.
The news broke earlier today via the official Metro franchise Twitter account, which shared the announcement with a cryptic nod to the game’s grim setting: “The tunnels are open… but not forever. Grab Metro 2033 Redux FREE on Xbox now.” Fans quickly flooded the replies with excitement, praising the move as a perfect excuse to revisit the post-apocalyptic masterpiece or experience it for the first time.
For the uninitiated, Metro 2033 Redux is a remastered version of the 2010 cult classic, rebuilt from the ground up with enhanced visuals, smoother gameplay, and refined mechanics. Based on Dmitry Glukhovsky’s bestselling novel, the game throws players into the ruins of Moscow after a nuclear war, where survivors cling to life in subterranean metro stations. As protagonist Artyom, you’ll battle mutated creatures, hostile factions, and the oppressive weight of a world stripped of humanity. The Redux edition bundles all original DLC and introduces gameplay choices that let players tailor the experience to their style—whether favoring stealth, combat, or sheer survival.

This giveaway arrives as the Metro series continues to build momentum following the success of 2019’s Metro Exodus, which expanded the story beyond the metro tunnels into a sprawling, apocalyptic Russia. With rumors swirling about a potential new installment, now’s the perfect time to jump into the franchise.
But don’t wait—once June 5 hits, the deal vanishes like a shadow in the metro. To claim your free copy, head to the Microsoft Store on your Xbox or via the web, search for Metro 2033 Redux, and hit “Get” before time runs out. Whether you’re a seasoned survivor or a newcomer to the series, this is one journey through the darkness you won’t want to miss.
Grab your gas mask, load your makeshift rifle, and prepare to descend. The metro awaits.
