Images appeared online yesterday of Metro 2033: Redux which appeared to be 4A Games’ attempt to port the first game to the Xbox One and PS4. Publisher Deep Silver finally offered some clarification on the same to VG247 and said that Metro Redux represents 4A Games’ first next gen project, one that will be properly announced at E3 2014.

“Metro Redux. You may have heard of it…even though you probably shouldn’t have! We could issue a ‘We do not comment on rumour and speculation’ statement and pretend this never happened. They’re pretty boring to read. They’re also pretty boring to write. So we’re going to comment on rumour and speculation instead.

“Is Metro Redux real? Yes. We never made any secret of 4A’s desire to bring Metro to the latest generation of console hardware. But what you saw leaked was taken from an old, internal planning presentation, containing some nuggets of truth but a lot of hypothetical ideas and place holder material.

“(Eagle eyed fans will recognize the artwork on the ‘packshot’ as the art from the original Russian edition of the Metro 2033 novel. And that ‘logo’ is just the old Metro 2033 logo with the ’2033′ scrubbed out and ‘Redux’ added…)

“As you can see, we’re not quite ready to reveal 4A Games’ first next-gen console project, but we will be making an announcement this side of E3. And we think the reality is a lot more exciting than the out-dated material that got leaked shows, and we’re itching to share it with you. Just not yet.”
