4A Games May ‘Investigate’ Metro: Last Light on PS4

Rumors have been circulating that 4A Games’ upcoming sequel Metro: Last Light may make its way to PlayStation 4. We reached out to publisher Deep Silver for clarification and confirmation and were told that these rumors aren’t quite true, at least not in the spirit that the rumors were being presented.

The confusion comes by way of an interview with a Ukranian outlet in which 4A Games’ Andrew Prokhorov in which he reportedly confirmed the game’s release for PlayStation 4, as well as a multiplayer-centric Metro game and more. But Deep Silver claims that “most of the nuance in his statements have not quite made the translation [into English].”

“It is no secret that 4A Games do want to release an SDK for Metro; finish the extremely promising multi-player component and release this in some form; and investigate a PlayStation 4 version provided it makes commercial sense (although no development has started on any next-gen console versions),” Deep Silver told IGN in an e-mail. “We have confirmed these hopes and ideas plenty of times before.”

“However, all these ideas are just ideas at the moment. It will be some time before we can officially commit to any of these projects or suggest when they might materialize. They genuinely might all happen, but equally, none of them might happen. Anyone expecting Metro: Last Light as a PS4 launch game is probably going to be disappointed…”

Metro: Last Light launches on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC this May, and we’ll have a full review right here on IGN.
