No GTA 6 right away, but Half-Life 3 could soon happen

It probably won’t escape you, but the output GTA 6 has just been repelled by Rockstar. Bad news for impatient fans, but a good one for other developers and players already with a nice toy library to finish. For those who are still waiting for a series of a cult game, the eyes are now turned towards Valve.

Recent rumors speak of a certain Half-Life 3, one of the most famous Arles of the video game.

Does Valve finally know how to count up to 3?

In the absence of a direct confirmation of Valve, the tweezers are obviously in order. The fact remains that the information of the day comes from Tyler McVickera person already known for his revelations around the projects of the company behind the Steam platform.

According to him, in the long AMA session below, the game that we will always call Half-Life 3 for lack of an official title (and whose code name would be HLX according to previous corridor noises) would be playable in its entirety and very actively tested. This is why, to Tyler McVicker, the game could be announced this summer, and even published at the end of the year.

The end of the adventure of Gordon Freeman?

For the record, the last game released from the Half-Life license is the game in virtual reality Half-Life: Alyxin 2020. As for Half-Life 2updated for its 20th anniversary in November 2024, its Two episode Date all the same from 2007.

This third episode, which would be a classic game and not in VR, could, according to McVicker, take advantage of the procedural generation of content in the manner of Left 4 Dead, but not for the terrain or the Roguelike mechanics. What possibly increase the replayability of the title and develop the deductible. In addition, Chell, the heroine of Portal (of which a hypothetical third opus is still expected also), could make an appearance.
