Officially, the studio revealed in 2020 that the game is in development via its website, “In 2020, 4A Games announced via its website “It’s no secret that we have already started work on the next Metro game. Using everything we’ve learned from the last 15 years, we’ve set our sights even higher – the next title is being built for Gen 9 consoles and PC, with a complete overhaul of our engine and renderer to take advantage of the new power, storage, and hardware supported ray tracing afforded by the new consoles.”

The developer also revealed in 2020 that the team is “committed to delivering a great story-driven single-player experience; this is what the Metro series is founded on.

We take our responsibility to the franchise seriously, and we think you’ll be excited about our plans for the next chapter.”
Insider Gaming understands that external playtests for the game have been ongoing consistently this past year, suggesting that the game is nearing a completed state.
