PC players can benefit from an upgrade discount if they own either one of the original games or both on steam:
Added Check Watch and Check Inventory features to let the player check the ammo reserves in the HUD-less Ranger Hardcore modeīoth Metro 2033 Redux and Metro: Last Light Redux are available separately as digital downloads on PS4, Xbox One and PC but they are also sold together in a physical release, simply titled Metro Redux, on all three platforms in Europe (in North America only the PS4 and Xbox One versions are available at retail as disc versions).Extra DLC weapons are now usable in the main story mode.Enemies feature new and improved hit-reactions.
Ranger Mode can be added as a modifier to any difficulty mode. Damage output to both player and enemies has been increased, meaning one or two-hit deaths/kills ought to be taken into account when assessing combat encounters. Ranger Mode again strips away the HUD completely and makes the player rely solely on the in-game indicators - such as Artyom's watch and each weapon's magazine. Ranger Mode Metro 2033 Reduxīoth games natively include the Ranger modifier, which was only available as separate DLC in the original releases of Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light. Spartan is based on the Last Light gameplay experience, while Survival is based on Metro 2033 and adds to the challenge with extremely scarce resources, more aggressive enemies, slower weapon switch and reload time. Two new difficulty modes have been added to both games as well, Spartan and Survival. This is at least part of the reason why Redux could not be offered to owners of the originals in as an update. The PC release dropped support for 32-bit operating systems to improve overall performance even on lower-end machines.
