The first trailer for Metro: Last Light, the sequel to Metro 2033, shows a smattering of gameplay screenshots with a black and white artistic styling and some cool music.

In the sequel, players are caught in the middle of a war for the control of a “doomsday device” that threatens to destroy what’s left of humanity forever. And it will be presumably even worse than the nuclear disaster that has already wiped out 95% of humanity in the previous game.

“We believe that Metro 2033 was a flawed masterpiece. It was a beautiful, original game that didn’t get the marketing support it needed. We won’t make that mistake with Metro: Last Light,” said THQ Vice President Danny Bilson.

“This game improves on the original in every way – it will have more polish, deeper and more sophisticated gameplay, and satisfyingly visceral combat, without losing what our fans loved about the original. Metro: Last Light is another artful piece of game development from an Eastern European studio that will thrill and terrify anyone looking for a more cerebral experience than your typical first person shooter.”

Here is the debut trailer for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC game.
