In a recent interview with Official PlayStation Magazine, 4A Games’ John Bloch (Executive Producer) of Metro Exodus revealed a lot of interesting information – Open World Approach, Map Size, Plot/Storyline and many other things.

Each and every corner of the Metro Exodus world will be available for players to explore, and it just won’t be an aesthetic delight because this time around 4A Games has brought in a special concept/element that will take the experience of exploring the world a notch higher – and this concept is Integration of the classic experience of the series with the elements of the Sandbox.
As far as storyline is concerned, John revealed that players will encounter new societies, religions, new mutants, environments and surroundings in Metro Exodus. In short, there will be new forms of interaction that will take the story forward and it is going to be an extensive one as compared to the previous two Metro games combined i.e Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light.
Furthermore, John revealed that players will get complete freedom of choice in Metro Exodus, but the decision they take in the game is going to impact the story as they make progress, and accordingly they will need to make changes to their strategy to overcome the hurdles. John then provided this example – when an Allied Faction of yours becomes an enemy, you will be forced to adapt your strategy.
The full interview of John with OPM is worth a read. Do buy the latest issue of the magazine. Metro Exodus is scheduled to launch in Fall 2017 for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
