A new trailer for Metro Exodus was showcased during Microsoft`s E3 2018 press conference. Along with providing another look at the upcoming first-person shooter, it confirmed when the game will launch for PS4, Xbox One, and PC--and it`s the same day as another anticipated shooter.As revealed in the new trailer, Metro Exodus`s release date is set for February 22, 2019. That`s notably the same day that BioWare`s new IP, Anthem, launches for the same platforms.Metro Exodus was originally slated to release this year; however, publisher THQ Nordic announced back in May that the game would now be coming in the first quarter of 2019. It didn`t provide a reason for the delay, but developer 4A Games said it was to ensure it delivered the best experience possible.`We want everyone to experience the most ambitious Metro game to date at its absolute best. Therefore we`ve moved the release date to Q1 2019,` 4A said. `We know this will be disappointing news for fans, but at E3 we will be revealing lots of new gameplay from a never-before-seen environment.`The new Metro Exodus trailer showcased a variety of weapons and customization options, as well as more of the game`s desolate setting. It begins with a man giving a speech about survival and shows off some gameplay elements, such as ziplines and the ability to use a lighter to burn up cobwebs and light up rooms.
