Half-Life 3 Is Ready, According to Valve Source
Half-Life 3, which has been rumored for years, is now on the agenda with a serious claim. According to information from sources close to Valve, the game is now fully playable and may be in the final stages of development. Although there has been no official announcement yet, leaks from Valve have reignited the excitement.
Half-Life 3 is Being Developed at the Most Advanced Point in Its History
Tyler McVicker, known for his YouTuber and Valve insider knowledge, shared remarkable details about Half-Life 3 in his latest live broadcast. According to McVicker, the game is currently playable from beginning to end. “This is the most advanced stage in the history of gaming. It is fully playable right now. Period,” he said, indicating that the game is technically complete and is now only entering the optimization and polishing process.
The project, called “HLX” by Valve employees, is said to have started to show itself with some clues that coincide with Deadlock updates in the past months. In addition, some mysterious Steam listings and a Valve artist’s statement that “I was in the room where Half-Life 3 was made” support these rumors. McVicker, on the other hand, pointed to a 2025 calendar by saying, “It will be announced at least this year.”
The information from the inside also reveals that the game will not be exclusive to VR and is not designed in an open-world format. This indicates that the classic Half-Life experience will be preserved. McVicker, who allayed the possible concerns of players by saying, “No, not VR. No, not open world,” stated that the project is currently in the content locking or mechanical completion phase.
The game is also being tested intensively. “The playtest process is almost obsessive,” said McVicker, stating that this detail proves that the game is almost finished. Although no official statement has been made from Valve for now, the studio is expected to break this silence within the year. All eyes are now on Valve’s decision.
