Metro 2039 mystery game revealed, xbox showcase teased

A major Metro game, titled Metro 2039, is reportedly set to be unveiled as part of a mysterious Microsoft Xbox event this week.

Leaked gameplay hints at new direction

According to NateTheHate, a leaker with a track record of accuracy, the new game's name and significant gameplay footage from a previous version leaked over the weekend.

While details remain scarce, the reveal of Metro 2039 comes after six years since the last mainline entry, Metro Exodus, which IGN praised for bringing its survival horror to the surface without sacrificing tension.

Microsoft has kept the nature of its upcoming showcase under wraps, leaving fans speculating whether the event will also include first-party Xbox game news.

In a separate, unconfirmed rumor, Sony is said to be planning a State of Play showcase for this week, further fueling anticipation for new gaming announcements.
