Fans of the Valve franchise are providing new content themselves.
In early 2026, modders returned to the Black Mesa: Military project and presented a new version.
In this fan campaign for the Half-Life remake, the writer offers players a different perspective on the events in "Black Mesa:"
My vision of the mod's plot differed slightly from Half-Life: Opposing Force, which I played many times. I wanted to rely more on the lore of Half-Life 1 than on the expansion from Gearbox. The main problem with the plot of Opposing Force for me is that it hardly focuses on the arrival of H.E.C.U. at the complex, but much more on the later period — abandoned soldiers and all that. This eliminated the opportunity to show, for example, how the H.E.C.U. marines fight off aliens or their struggle with the staff of "Black Mesa." There is almost none of this in Opposing Force. My mod offers a different view of this struggle, which corresponds to the events of Half-Life 1 or Black Mesa. Some may like it, and those who were waiting for a remake of Opposing Force may not.
In the 2026 version of Black Mesa: Military, the AI of the marines has been improved, new dialogues have been added, some chapters have been updated, and a new custom installer has appeared to simplify the mod installation process.
The project is distributed free of charge via ModDB.
