Posted by Maniac in Game News.add a comment
Well, here it is. The next Half-Life game has been announced, and its coming exclusively to VR.
Half-Life: Alyx takes place between the events of Half-Life 1 and Half-Life 2. You play the game as Alyx, Gordon’s partner in the Half-Life 2 games. From the looks of it, we’re going to be privy to a lot of tidbits about the Half-Life universe we had not seen before…and after waiting over a decade since the last official Half-Life game was released…this could not have been more welcome news.
Half-Life: Alyx is coming to most PC VR headsets including Valve Index, Oculus and Vive. God I hope this is coming to the PSVR at some point, I really don’t want to have to build a new PC with a VR headset…
Half-Life: Alyx is coming to PC VR headsets in March 2020. It will be free to owners of the Valve Index.
