Metro 2033 out March 19

Apocalyptic FPS coming to PC and Xbox 360.

THQ has announced that Metro 2033, the apocalyptic FPS from Ukrainian studio 4A Games, will be released in Europe on March 19 for Xbox 360 and PC.

A Limited Edition will be available for both formats, including an exclusive in-game weapon – the formidable automatic shotgun – and four art cards by the Russian painter Anton Grechko, who was commissioned to create a range of artwork inspired by the universe of Metro 2033.

Set in the shattered subway of a post apocalyptic Moscow, Metro 2033 is a story of underground survival where the fate of mankind rests in the player's hands.

Look out for impressions of the game next week.
