Metro 2033 Free on Steam Right Now!

Are you looking for a great game to get stuck into this weekend? If you are, then I have great news for you. The brilliant Metro 2033 is available on Steam right now, and best of all, it’s completely free!

Deep Silver announced that Metro 2033 is now available for free on Steam, but only for a limited time. Gamers will have until March 15th to grab it and you can hit their official Steam Store page for it here to do so.

However, there’s only one slight thing to point out. This is the original version of the game, not the Redux edition. Not that it matters if you’ve never played it and a free game is a free game. It’s based on the internationally bestselling novel series by Dmitry Glukhovsky, a if you’ve never played any Metro game, this is a great time to start.
