A new rumor says 4A Games could unveil the next Metro game next week, with insider NateTheHate backing the claim. Nothing has been confirmed yet.
Metro may resurface soon
A new Metro game could be announced next week, according to a fresh rumor backed by insider NateTheHate. Nothing is official yet, but the timing lines up with long-running expectations that 4A Games is getting close to showing its next project.
The claim started with a post from AlexandreNGamR saying a Metro reveal is expected next week. NateTheHate then replied that it was "true" and separately said the rumor "has merit", giving the chatter more weight.
It's true.

Long wait since Exodus
If the reveal happens, it would mark the first major Metro announcement in years. The last mainline entry, Metro Exodus, launched in 2019, and 4A has stayed mostly quiet about the series since then.
What has been said publicly points to a traditional follow-up:
- In 2020, 4A said it was committed to another story-driven single-player Metro game.
- In 2023, reporting claimed the next Metro was already fully playable and well into development.
Reveal window looks busy
Next week is already shaping up as a crowded one for game announcements. Separate rumors have pointed to a possible PlayStation State of Play, which could give Metro a natural stage if Sony is planning a showcase. That part is still unconfirmed too, so the exact event, if there is one, remains unclear.
