It's been an extremely volatile time for Ironmace of late, even facing a police raid of their offices over claims of stolen code (which the developer said there was nothing to worry about). There's a lot of speculation here right now, but it does shoot down one common theory that the Ironmace developer who initiated the GoFundMe campaign was the victim of a hack.

This person, who goes by the Discord moniker "Luci," previously set up a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for a copyright dispute, but the campaign was deleted very swiftly, with Ironmace stating that it was "prematurely" revealed by an employee.ĭark and Darker players speculated that this Luci had had their responsibilities revoked in the Discord, and perhaps even their responsibilities in the wider game removed entirely. It had been noted that one former developer at Ironmace had been stripped of their roles in the developer Discord. As Artyom, burdened by guilt but driven by hope, you hold the key to our survival – the last light in our darkest hour.Finally, the developer has shot down a theory that the employee who put up a recent GoFundMe had been sacked. A civil war is stirring that could wipe humanity from the face of the earth forever.

" But rather than stand united, the station-cities of the Metro are locked in a struggle for the ultimate power, a doomsday device from the military vaults of D6.

Mutants stalk the catacombs beneath the desolate surface, and hunt amidst the poisoned skies above," reads an official blurb about the game on Steam. Beneath the ruins of post-apocalyptic Moscow, in the tunnels of the Metro, the remnants of mankind are besieged by deadly threats from outside – and within. In other words, the game was pretty well receieved in addition to selling pretty well. On Metacritic, the game boasts scores ranging from 76 to 86, with most scores, depending on the platform, being in the 80s. A sequel to 2010's Metro 2033 and the second installment in the Metro series, Metro: Last Light debuted back in 2023 via the aforementioned duo. The offer comes the way developer 4A Games and publisher Deep Silver, who, together, are giving away Metro: Last Light Complete Edition for free.
