Leaving home for the first time is never easy. For Artyom, the journey is beyond his worst nightmares. Enter a shattered, post-apocalyptic world that has only one final hope for survival in this chilling first-person shooter. When a disaster turns the surface of the Earth into a poisonous wasteland, the remaining citizens of Moscow descend into the subway.

Ghosts and other horrors lurk in the darkness of the forgotten Moscow subway tunnels. And creatures that are much worse wait for you in the wastelands above.
