The last game in the Metro series was a lengthy open-world shooter. Now that the first virtual reality game in the series, Metro Awakening, has launched, it’s interesting to see it head back to the linear horror roots of Metro 2033.

The Dark Ones are very mysterious beings but there are some things we know about them.
Focusing more on the story and the claustrophobic action does mean it’s not as big a game as Exodus, but how long is it in comparison to other virtual reality games? Like most shooters, that depends on a few things, including how good you are at getting used to the mechanics, which are admittedly cumbersome in Metro Awakening.
How Long Does It Take To Beat Metro Awakening?
Metro Awakening is much shorter than Metro Exodus and a little shorter than Metro 2033 and Metro First Light. If you want to rush through the story, you’ll be able to beat it in about six hours. While a group of players on How Long To Beat are currently playing the game, there’s not enough data to confirm a consensus quite yet.
Including the prologue, there are 13 chapters to complete in Metro Awakening.
The game is pretty linear, with certain story beats to hit and a main path to follow. For most players, expect it to take around eight hours. Depending on how much you struggle against the spiders that jump at your face, each chapter lasts about 30 minutes.
How Long Does It Take To 100 Percent?
If you want to 100 percent Metro Awakening, you’re looking at spending a little longer with the game.
To complete the story and find all the postcards, you should expect to spend 10-15 hours with the game. After that, you should also have all the trophies and achievements.
There are postcards littered across every level, which are tricky to find. You’re only looking for a couple in each chapter, and the notepad in your backpack in-game tells you how many you have found in the chapter you’re currently playing, but you’ll likely have to return after you’ve beaten the story or use a guide to find them all.
