Foursquare is the latest company that brings its own Metro app on Windows 8, so adopters of Microsoft’s operating system can launch the Store and download it right away.

Specifically designed to help you discover new places, read and post reviews, Foursquare works on both Windows 8 and Windows RT, coming free of charge to all users of the modern OS.

“With Foursquare, you and your friends can make the most of where you are and where you’re going by checking in to the places you visit and sharing and saving your favorite places. Over 35 million people worldwide use Foursquare and have checked in over 4 billion check-ins. And there are millions more check-ins each day. With all this data from people checking in, sharing and saving their favorite places, as well as ratings and tips,” Microsoft’s Brandon LeBlanc wrote today.

The app is obviously optimized for the touch and works like a charm on Windows RT devices, including Microsoft’s very own Surface RT.
