If this Metro: Last Light gameplay video is anything to go by, the reason the game is called ‘Last Light’ is because players will be systematically hunting down and killing all of the available light sources in the world, all in an effort to improve their chances of sneaking up on enemies in the pitch-black darkness.

Other than a moody setting, in the gameplay demo video below you’ll also be able to witness an intense gunfight, destructible cover, and a bunch of bad guys getting mowed down with a gatling gun – Metro: Last Light is looking extremely promising indeed!
