Why target the ElAmigos version specifically?
| Feature | ElAmigos | FitGirl | DODI | Steam Unlocked |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Compression Size | ~45 GB (from 80 GB) | ~30 GB (Ultra repack) | ~40 GB | Full 80 GB (no compression) |
| Install Time | Fast (20 mins on HDD) | Slow (1-2 hours on HDD) | Medium (45 mins) | Instant (pre-installed) |
| Language Selector | Yes (per-language voices) | Yes (limited) | No | No |
| Virus Risk | Very Low (verified scene) | Low | Medium | High (often fake) |
| Updates Included | Yes (v1.0.7.0) | Sometimes outdated | Usually latest | Rarely updated |
Verdict: If you have limited HDD space and unlimited time, FitGirl is better. If you want a stable, fast-installing, malware-free version with all voice languages, ElAmigos is superior.
Searching for "Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition - ElAmigos" means you are looking for a cracked DRM-free copy.
Our stance: If you enjoy the game and your hardware can run it, buy Metro Exodus Gold Edition on Steam during a sale ($12-15). Then, add the ElAmigos repack as a "backup" to avoid the launcher. This gives you the best of both worlds: you support the developers and you have a DRM-free installer.
Because the ElAmigos version bypasses store pages, users sometimes try to run it on unsupported hardware. Do not do this.

| OS | Windows 10 (21H1+) | Windows 11 | Windows 11 |
Note on AMD Radeon: The Enhanced Edition runs much better on RDNA2/RDNA3 than Polaris/Vega. A Radeon RX 580 will not launch this game, despite being capable of running the original Exodus.
