Metro 4: Date and Venue of the Announcement

Studio 4A Games has finally announced the exact date and format for presenting its next flagship title in the post‑apocalyptic shooter series “Metro.” Insiders confirmed that the announcement will take place on April 16 at a small Microsoft event. This event is unrelated to the expected State of Play scheduled for the same day.

4A Games Leak
Recently, data miners from the “Around‑Builds Metro|4A Games” group released a 130 GB archive containing materials for Metro 2039. At least some of the files date to 2022, indicating that work on the game has already been underway.

Immediately after the leak, videos with gameplay of varying lengths and quality spread online, showcasing different elements of the proposed Metro 2039 version. We will not publish links, but they can be found by searching “Metro 2039 leak.”

What to Expect from the Presentation
4A Games officially confirmed development of the next series title in the fall of 2020. Rumors suggest production was rebooted in 2022, so at the upcoming announcement fans may see a product that is quite different from what they previously expected.

In short: Metro 2039 will be announced on April 16 at a Microsoft event. The presentation is expected to reveal new details and possibly shift the project’s direction compared to earlier plans.
