Half-Life Alyx is bringing the series back thanks to VR

Valve, known lately for their Steam service, have finally announced a new game and it is in the Half-Life Universe, the only downside is that it is VR only, at least for now. Say hello to Half-Life Alyx.

Playing as Alyx Vance, you are humanity’s only chance for survival. The Combine’s control of the planet since the Black Mesa incident has only strengthened as they corral the remaining population in cities. Among them are some of Earth’s greatest scientists: you and your father, Dr. Eli Vance.

As founders of a fledgling resistance, you’ve continued your clandestine scientific activity—performing critical research, and building invaluable tools for the few humans brave enough to defy the Combine.

Every day, you learn more about your enemy, and every day you work toward finding a weakness.

The game is set to release in March 2020 and will support all the standard VR platforms on PC, Oculus, Vive, Windows Mixed Reality
