4A Games is a distinguished video game developer primarily known for creating the critically acclaimed 'Metro' series, based on the novels by Dmitry Glukhovsky. Founded in Kyiv, Ukraine, the studio has built a reputation for high-fidelity technical performance and atmospheric storytelling using their proprietary 4A Engine. Following geopolitical shifts, the studio expanded its operations by establishing a new headquarters in Malta to facilitate international growth and stability.

The studio's history is deeply rooted in the Eastern European gaming industry, with its founders having previously worked on titles like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. over the years, the brand has grown into a global powerhouse in the first-person shooter genre. Today, 4A Games continues to innovate in the gaming space, maintaining a dual-presence across its Mediterranean headquarters and its original Ukrainian roots.

In 2020, 4A Games was acquired by Saber Interactive under the umbrella of the Embracer Group. Despite the complex restructuring of the parent organization in recent years, 4A Games remains a key asset. The ultimate ownership structure places the studio within a network of global developers under a parent company headquartered in Sweden, ensuring that their future titles continue to reach a worldwide audience.
