XGTV UA plays Metro 2039 demo: early impressions on gameplay, stealth and graphics

Ukrainian channel XGTV UA posted a YouTube video showing a playthrough and review of the Metro 2039 demo after completing it.

The video opens with a first look at the demo and includes a section on the story without spoilers; the presenter describes the story as presented “без клоунади” (attributed to XGTV UA). The review then covers gameplay: gunfights, monsters and quests, with the host assessing combat mechanics and overall impressions.

XGTV UA says stealth in the demo is slightly improved; a dedicated segment discusses stealth. The presenter also examines weapons, the arsenal, progression and crafting, and highlights the demo’s strong atmosphere.

In the graphics and optimization segment the channel comments on visuals and game performance on tested hardware; the video offers the host’s impressions but does not provide specific benchmark figures. The closing section addresses whether to wait for Metro 2039 and whether to preorder, presented as XGTV UA’s opinion.

The uploader included timestamps in the video description; for example, the “Graphics and optimization” segment is listed at 21:03.
