Details have leaked online about an unannounced network project in the Metro universe, which, apparently, was eventually canceled or sent to deep freeze. We are talking about the AAA shooter Metro Extraction - it was developed as a cooperative extraction project and could become a direct competitor to Escape from Tarkov.
The game was developed by 4A Games (the authors of the original Metro trilogy) together with the Argentinean Saber LATAM (formerly Nimble Giant). The project planned to implement a full-fledged large-scale open world, dynamic changes in the time of day, weather simulation, as well as a cooperative mode and PVEVP mechanics in the spirit of Tarkov.
It was initially believed that the project was frozen back in 2022, but data from employee profiles on LinkedIn indicate that active development continued until at least the end of 2024.
Separately, it is worth mentioning another closed project - Metro 2039. Until 2022, the St. Petersburg division of Saber Interactive, a team of about 30 people, worked on it. Now the office is closed, and the fate of the developments remains unknown.
