In 2004 expectations were exceeded with its sequel which spawned two equally amazing expansions. There was supposed to be a third expansion that would build the bridge toHalf-Life 3, but much like the third numbered entry, that expansion never arrived.

To be fair, gamers were treated toHalf-Life: Aylxin 2020, unfortunately, a huge portion of the fanbase was excluded from playing this prequel toHL2given the fact that it is currently a PC exclusive, and not only demands a high-end PC to run, but also a qualityVRheadset to boot.
So naturally, console gamers have been calling forHalf-Life: Alyxto arrive onPlayStation 5andXboxSeries X|S. Though if that prequel ever arrived on consoles, the chances are that it will be a PS VR2 exclusive. Yet, we live in hope for a non-VR game in addition. It’s also fair to say that fans have all but given up the hope of ever seeingHalf-Life 3.
However, a glimmer of hope for a new Half-Life game has been sparked and potentially leaked via the Gamescom mobile app. That being said, it’s wise to keep our expectations grounded.
“Gamescom possibly leaked a new Half-Life,”saidReddit user ItzDarko42 opening up the discussion on the thread. They continued: “Gamescom has a companion app. In it, you can see a list of exhibitors. In that list, you can find Valve. Valve is not officially confirmed to be at Gamescom yet. If you look at the exhibited brands you can see Half-Life. That could be a mistake of course, but if not, that would be pretty interesting.”

Still, could we finally haveHalf-Life 3announced? Unlikely. Could we finally have aHalf-Life: Alyxannouncement for consoles? You never know.
