Anyone can go down into the Metro. Set up an account, pick where you would rather play, and a couple of minutes later you will be standing on a platform with a torch in your hand.
Set up an account
IGS ID is your name in the Metro. One account remembers you in the game, on the market and on the forum: your gear stays in storage, your reputation follows you, and your correspondence with traders survives a reinstall.
Choose the way in
There is one door into the Metro right now — our own launcher. One more is being built: soon you will be able to come in through the storefront you already use.
The launcher downloads the game, pulls updates before a raid and checks that no file is damaged. Everything it needs comes with it — there is nothing else to install.

The Metro is dark, not expensive. The game runs happily on a machine bought five years ago — and if yours is newer, the tunnels get noticeably prettier.
