Half-Life 3 may finally be in development according to Valve leaks

Between a mix of Valve leaks and data mining, it’s been revealed that a title named HLX/Project White Sands is in development. After all this time, we may finally be getting Half-Life 3.

It’s been difficult to pinpoint what Valve’s been up to over the past few years due to an unannounced project, Deadlock. But, with leaked gameplay footage and several creators talking about it, its existence is all but confirmed by Valve as a multiplayer, MOBA-like shooter.

With information about Deadlock now more widespread than ever, picking up the pieces and figuring out what is and isn’t related to that game is a bit easier for dataminers.

According to prominent Valve leaker/dataminer Tyler McVicker, Half-Life 3 may be in development. A mix of publicly posted information from actors and former employees, as well as datamined enemy types, have made for strong indicators that Half-Life is coming back.

An actress involved with the project put a reference to “Project White Sands,” a game from Valve that doesn’t match any prior datamined codenames for Deadlock. The credit they put in their resume has since been deleted, however.

This coincides with a resume from a former employee at Valve who worked on level design for an “unnanounced” Valve project that included “layouts, lighting, combat encounters, and puzzles”.

Additionally, their resume noted that they worked on the game from 2020-2023, meaning it may have been in development for years.

Considering that Deadlock is a MOBA-like multiplayer title, the description of puzzles and combat encounters doesn’t match that sort of gameplay style. Not to mention McVicker’s datamining revealing some Xen enemies and an HEV suit.

File names indicate Xen Jellyfish, Xen Gorillas, Swoopers, Pentatanks, Feral Manhacks and more could be included in the game, though we don’t have any indication as to what these enemies look like.

Regardless, it’s the most solid news we’ve had on a new Half-Life entry yet. Though this could be another spinoff in Valve’s pursuit to never once count to three, there’s also a chance this is the Half-Life 3 people have wanted for almost two decades.

Also, it might be too late for it already anyway. It's been so long since i played HL that it's hard for me to give a shit anymore.

And honestly, Gabe should just let the fans create and provide Half Life 3 at this point since it's glaringly obvious he's not getting off his fat lazy ass any time soon with the project.

And just so we can all equally and properly hate Gabe Newell -

It's ****ing gay. It's TWO LEVELS.

Why are they WASTING TIME slapping new coats of paint on an old game?

notorious 03-22-2025 07:08 PM

I thought it was some small independent company that did the work on this.

Old games can use love too. Black Mesa is amazing.

Being that it looks exactly like HL2 you will be mildly disappointed when you can’t do HL2 things.

Stuff doesn’t move around as much, and no grav gun.

Looks like some fans are working on Half Life 3.

Project Borealis: Prologue

https://projectborealis.com/#about

On August 25th 2017, a plot synopsis was published on the blog of Half-Life writer Marc Laidlaw. The story detailed the adventures of Gertie Fremont and Alex Vaunt, and is now believed to be an overview of the intended plot of the long awaited Half-Life 2: Episode 3.

From the ensuing chaos in the Half-Life community, Project Borealis was formed. We're a group of Half-Life fans who are spending our evenings and weekends creating the game we've been waiting so long for.

Project Borealis is now a global team of developers dedicated to revisiting the Half-Life series with a fresh new episode for fans of the series, old and new, to enjoy.

Project Borealis is being created on Unreal Engine to give it the updated look that Half-Life has deserved after all these years. We're aiming to make the game feel just as familiar as long-term fans will expect it to, while modernising the graphics and technology. We'll be posting development updates along the way on our blog.

We hope you enjoy the ride with us as we complete this journey.

Bethesda hates FNV, they didn't make it and the company that did no longer makes great games. It is what it is and will probably never happen.

This is the latest game from Obsidian, are they going to make FNV?

The one on the right looks like it's straight from a Simon Stalenhag book.


Holy shit.
