Can I Run Metro 2033 Redux?
Metro 2033 Redux is an action game from 4A Games, released in 2014. Deep Silver published it. The game supports a single player campaign. Alongside Windows it also ships for macOS and Linux. It carries 49 achievements. It is localised into 10 languages according to the store listing. Its Steam review count passes 93 thousand, a large enough sample that odd hardware behaviour would be known by now. A gamepad works without remapping, since controller support is complete. It is old enough that no current GPU generation existed when it shipped, so modern hardware tends to be far past what it can use. Cloud saves are enabled.
