After rumours circulated all week, Valve has confirmed this morning on a brand new Twitter account that there is a new Half-Life game coming. Yes, you read that right.

No, it’s not Half-Life 3, or Half-Life 2: Chapter 3 or any variation of those. It’s called Half-Life: Alyx and, as the tweet states, it’s going to be the company’s flagship VR title.

Valve released their own VR headset in June of this year called the Index and although the thing is a powerhouse, it’s definitely on the high-end spectrum of VR gaming in both cost and accessibility word-wild. We currently don’t know if this Half-Life: Alyx will be exclusive to anyone VR platform, but it’s a possibility.

I’m sure fans will be disappointed if the game doesn’t come with a non-VR version reveal, but at this stage, any Half-Life is better than none, right?

The reveal is coming 5 AM AEDT on Friday so stay tuned for more.
