The wait for a new installment in the franchise continues.
While the anticipation for a "November announcement of Half-Life 3" has not been justified, fans of the franchise are not discouraged, as three insiders have given them hope.
Gabe Followerreported that Valve is allegedly planning to show Half-Life 3 for the first time before the end of 2025.
Another well-known blogger-insider in the community, Tyler McVicker, claims that the development of HL3 is in the final stages and an announcement may be made soon.
Tom Hendersonalso noted that during a podcast he stated that a "big game" may be released in March along with the Steam Machine:
Yes, the common theory is that [the next major announcement from Valve will not be at The Game Awards], but it will be a game released simultaneously with the Steam Machine, right? Like, an exclusive? Which makes sense. And if we get a Steam Machine, did you say early 2026? Or just in '26? [...] most likely in March, because I've heard that some big game is coming out in March, which I can't name yet. But many are looking forward to it... Let's see if we talk about it in the next couple of weeks.
