Metro: Last Light Redux Keyboard & Controller Controls
Metro: Last Light Redux is 4A Games' 2014 remaster of the second Metro game, sending Artyom back through Moscow's tunnels and onto its poisoned surface. Most of the keys here keep him breathing and seeing: putting on and wiping the gas mask, swapping filters against the watch, and switching between flashlight, lighter and night vision, alongside the usual shooter controls. Xbox buttons come from the game's default controller preset wherever it binds the action.
