The buildup and anticipation for Dee꧙p Silver/4A Games’ Metro Exodus has not gone as well as the studio may have hoped and, unfortunately, the hits just keep o꧑n coming.
It was originally being reported that the game, which comes out this Friday, February 15th, would not allow pre-loading for Steam users who were lucky enough to pre-order the game before it was removed from the platform. The 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Epic Games Store was expected to be taking priority for the pre-load feꦦature since, according to a Deep Silver support , most of the g꧋ame’s tra🌺ffic was anticipated to be through that platform.
However𒅌, it seems that Steam users are getting the last laugh after all, as a from the Metro Exodus Twitter page has revealed that a pr𝐆e-load will be offered for Steam pre-orders, but will NOT be offered on the Epic Games Store.
“Metro Exodus💛 pre-load for existing Steam pre-order customers WILL HAPPEN, and we will announce expected start time in due course,” the tweet states. “We regret to inform that pre-load via the Epic Games Store is not planned.”
To catch you up to speed, the onslaught of negative feedback r♓egarding Metro Exodus’ move from Steam to Epic resulted in a disgruntled game developer threatening no future Metro games on PC, which forced Deep Silver to do a bit of d𝕴amage control, reaffirming PC will always be in the plans for the Metro series.
Metro Exodus is the second big-name title to announce the move from Steam to the Epic Games Store; the other title being 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Ubisoft’s The Division 2. However, Metro Exodus will be the first game to actually release through the Epic Store, but so far, all of the drama has not exactly been a ringing endorsement for other titles 🍃to make the platform switch.
Deep Silve🦹r has not yet reve🐼aled when the pre-load for Steam users will be available, but the clock is ticking as release day rapidly approaches. Considering the game comes in at a whopping 60 GB, hopefully the pre-load will be available sooner than later.
