According to 4A, the content will begin in June with the Faction Pack, which, along with the upcoming Chronicle Pack, will “focus on new and original single player gameplay and stories that expand upon the Metro: Last Light universe.” Additional packs will include the Tower Pack, which “focuses on challenge and pure gameplay for Metro veterans,” and the Developer Pack, which “will give creative players some interesting tools with which to explore the world of Metro.”Players who purchase the Season Pass will also receive “the Absats weapon -- a buckshot-firing heavy machine gun -- ready for use in the Metro.”All packs will contain “single player content that is set in the same Metro universe, but which isn't part of Artyom's personal journey in Metro: Last Light." 4A says it "had great ideas for special content they wanted to make beyond the main game and its focused story-driven campaign, and Deep Silver also loved their ideas, so now the developer will have the time and resources to turn those ideas into a reality.”“Artyom's story may have been concluded in Metro: Last Light, but there are other characters with stories to tell, some familiar locations that fans of the Metro series wanted to revisit, and some new challenges that 4A wanted to explore," said 4A creative director Andrew Prokhorov. "Since completing the game we have been working on these new stories and hope to release them throughout the summer."
