Metro Exodus gamescom trailer shows off the open environments and nocturnal nightmare creatures

Metro Exodus gets a new trailer that shows the perils that lurk after dark.

The newest Metro Exodus trailer ventures into horror territory with spooky set pieces, nightmarish creatures, and a few crazies to boot.

Metro Exodus is set to launch on February 22, 2019, on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
