Half-Life is back and better than ever. Alongside interviews with the original developers, the game is now available with the Uplink mini-campaign, Steam Deck support, updated graphics settings, new multiplayer maps, and bonus restored goodies.
Alyx is an interquel, if we’re going to say that’s a real word, and it released on a platform most of the audience just won’t ever have. Also, it doesn’t so much continue the story as it does promise to continue the story. They admit that they’ve got work to do.

Rules:
1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
25 years, still getting updates!
Anything to avoid making Half Life 3, I guess.
Why do people still insist Alyx isn’t 3? It’s clearly 3, it’s the continuation of the story.
