Rumor: Metro 2033 sequel to get new name?

2010's post-apocalypse shooter Metro 2033 is supposed to be getting a full sequel. In the past, Danny Bilson, VP of the original game's publisher THQ, has referred to the sequel as Metro 2034. Now it looks like that title may be changing.

Spotted by the Twitter user known only as "superannuation", THQ has secured the rights to the new URLs "www.lastlight.com", "www.metrolastlight.com" and "www.metro2033lastlight.com". That would seem to suggest that the Metro 2034 title has been ditched. Bilson has said in the past that he felt that Metro 2033 didn't get much of a marketing push but that will change for the sequel. He's already said, " ... it's going to have a first-class marketing campaign that kicks off at E3."
