Thanks to Tyler McVicker's datamine of Aperture Desk Job, players can remain hopeful that a new Half-Life experience will release soon. The virtual reality project plants seeds for the sci-fi franchise's next installment, leading some to believe that Half-Life 3 will be a VR game like Alyx. Back in 2007 Half-Life 2: Episode 2 ended on a massive cliffhanger, but Valve unfortunately lefts its fanbase waiting through numerous Episode 3 delays. The launch of Half-Life: Alyx renewed many gamers' hopes of seeing the release of Half-Life 3. The long-rumored Citadel, the most detailed of the four leaked titles, appears to combine class-based shooters with real-time strategy games to create a unique competitive experience. While these leaks are exciting, it is important for fans to take them with a grain of salt until any official announcement from Valve. The datamine points to four games: a follow-up to Half-Life: Alyx, a Source 2 port of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, a previously-cancelled Portal game centered around paint and a multiplayer game called Citadel.

However, The Orange Box also served as the end of the golden age of Valve games. Half-Life 2 was met with even greater acclaim in 2004, and Valve reached the peak of its popularity with 2007's Orange Box. The epic compilation included Half-Life 2: Episode 2, the first-person puzzle game Portal and the class-based first-person shooter Team Fortress 2. The Half-Life: Alyx community continues to build on Valve’s tools in every direction - we recently reported on more BioShock levels planned for release as an addon later this year.1998's Half-Life, an immersive first-person shooter which combined fast-paced gunplay with an immersive sci-fi story, instantly put Valve on the gaming industry map. You can find the addon here and there’s a Discord server you can join for more information about the effort. We captured a six minutes of gameplay so you can check out how it looks: “With a bigger team, we hope we can integrate new puzzles, more unique VR-friendly mechanics and vastly improved assets,” the description for the addon explains. The first playable demo of the addon for Half-Life: Alyx was put together by four people in less than a month and features more than 200 models that are ported or new, according to the creators, and they’re offering the ApertureVR Source Pack with “prefabs, models, scripts, maps and more that allows creators to design more custom test chambers in VR.”

Last year we looked at another mod that let you walk through a Portal 2 map and pick up some items, but this latest one actually offers a bit of gameplay and its creators hope it can serve as the basis of much more.
There’s no portal gun here, there’s only four test chambers and we were only able to successfully complete the first two - there seemed to be a progression bug with the third one at the time of this writing. The mod is called ApertureVR – Thinking Without Portals and it does a fantastic job recreating the look, feel and sound of Valve’s classic Portal 2 adapted with Half-Life: Alyx’s gravity gloves to pull cubes over to you. A new addon for Half-Life: Alyx offers a couple test chambers inspired by Portal 2 that you can solve in VR without a portal gun.
