Starting today, all those who have a copy of Metro Exodus on PS4 and Xbox One will have the option to update the game to the Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition version on PS5 and Xbox Series X / S. Best of all, the process is completely free for all those who want to enjoy this improved edition.
However, this has led to a problem related to saved games. As we can read in VGC, those who make the leap from PS4 to PS5 will not be able to transfer the saved data , so they will have no choice but to start the adventure from the beginning.
Of course, to compensate for this mishap in the options , a chapter selector will be enabled so that anyone can start playing from wherever they want. In this case, the game will adapt the equipment to the chosen point, although the trophies cannot be unlocked and it will also affect the decisions made, hence 4A Games recommends not opting for this possibility.
In the case of the update from Xbox One to Xbox Series X / S, the autosaves and quick saves will not be carried over . What will be kept with the saves that are established when a chapter is finished, so you would have to start one from the beginning if you have left it halfway, so the company advises to finish the episode in question first before jumping to the new version.
In the event that you do not have a copy of Metro Exodus , you can also choose to get the Metro Exodus Complete Edition on PS5 and Xbox Series X / S, which includes all the original content and its two expansions for 39, 99 euros.
