Half-Lifeis one of the most beloved video game franchises of all time. The release of the originalHalf-Lifeback in November of 1998 put Valve on the video gaming map and was what largely contributed to Valve’s future success as a studio all throughout the 2000s. Unfortunately, Valve had yet to put out a newHalf-Lifegame sinceHalf-Life 2: Episode 2, which released in October of 2007. However, out of nowhere,Valve announced the release ofHalf-Life: Alyx,a full thirteen years later, and members of the gaming community lost their minds.
Since the game’s release,Half-Life: Alyxhas beenuniversally praised, with critics saying that it was well worth the wait. That being said, the game has only been out for four days and members of the gaming community have begun to create memes out of the game’s opening video.
In the short amount of time that this game has been out, players have been enthralled by what it has to offer. Given the advanced nature of the technology used to play the game, there are many possibilities for players to try. In fact, someone actually managed toclimb all the way to the top of the citadelfeatured in the game’s promo, a place that was not intended for player exploration.
Then again, it did take thirteen years for Valve to make anotherHalf-Lifegame, and even then, it’s still notHalf-Life 3, the game that people have been asking for since 2007. Not to mention no newPortalinstallment on the horizon either. So, despite all of the success ofHalf-Life: Alyx,the question remains,will this game bring Valve as a gaming studio back? Only time will tell.
Half-Life: Alyxis available now exclusively for Steam.
