If you just can’t wait for Metro: Last Light, you’re more than free to pre-order the upcoming shooter from Steam.
Pre-ordering Metro: Last Light gives you a few in-game goodies for your troubles, and you can also get a nifty 10% off if you own Metro 2033 as well.
The free goodies available to players who pre-order include mostly in-game items such as the Modified Russian Rifle, Ranger Mode and the military-grade bullets. The main draw to pre-ordering is the digital comic that you get, penned by Dmity Dlukhovsky himself who wrote the original Metro 2033 novel as well as contributing to Metro: Last Light as the games lead writer.
So if getting some in-game content and a digital comic sounds like a good reason to pre-order, go for it! Remember, if you own Metro 2033 you’re in for 10% off, further sweetening the sweet deal.
