THQ and 4a Games' grungy, post-apocalyptic first-person shooter, Metro 2033, is nearing release time and the official launch trailer has surfaced for the game. The trailer centers on the ghosts of the metro and the monsters that spawned those ghosts.

One of the highlights of Metro 2033 is that looks really cinematic and it could easily be one of those games that manages to hit cult-status as a sleeper of 2010 if the actual gameplay is as appealing as the story premise.

You can check out the launch trailer for the game below or look for Metro 2033 to hit store shelves on March 16th for the Xbox 360 and PC. Sorry PS3 owners, you’ll have to look elsewhere for a post-apocalyptic, story-driven, corridor shooter. For more info be sure to visit the Official Website.
