Originally scheduled for February 22, Metro Exodus has gone gold and will now launch on February 15. Publisher Deep Silver celebrates the announcement with the game’s haunting title sequence, featuring music by composer Alexey Omelchuk.

Metro Exodus looks pretty badass in a new trailer set to Massive Attack’s “Angel.” Deep Silver showed off gameplay in the post-apocalyptic survival FPS at Microsoft’s E3 Media Briefing and also revealed it now has a release date of February 22, 2018, a day that’s already stacked with both Days Gone and Anthem.

Two of publisher Deep Silver’s planned 2018 releases, Metro Exodus and Shenmue III, have been delayed until 2019. In both cases, Deep Silver cited the need for more time to polish each game. It’s another reminder that nebulous, year-long release windows almost never end up being accurate.
