Metro 2039 is a game about war that actually has something to say
Ukrainian developer 4A Games is creating Metro 2039 amidst the ongoing Russian invasion, significantly impacting the game's themes to focus on the 'consequences of war.' Executive producer Jon Bloch and co-creative director Pawel Ulmer discuss how the team's lived experiences of conflict have shaped the narrative, making it more explicit in its commentary on authoritarianism and the cost of freedom compared to previous entries in the series.
