During the State of Play event in September, fans of the Metro series finally got their way. At least those fans who adore virtual reality. We got a new trailer for the VR shooter Metro Awakeningwho first of all revealed that the Metro spin-off series will be released on November 7 this year. But the video also offered new story details that include one pretty interesting twist.
The trailer itself, as well as the accompanying article on the game's official website, revealed that the protagonist of the new story from the tunnels of the Moscow metro, who until now was known only as Dr. Serdar, is not quite a new character. Metro Awakening is the story of how Serdar becomes Khan (in English translation Khan), a mysterious figure known from previous games and from the original pen books Dmitry Glukhovskywho is also involved in the development of the new VR shooter from Vertigo Games.
