New Half-Life 3 rumors suggest that the game will be open world and will be released after 2013. A “reliable source” tells French site journaldugamer that Half-Life 3 has been “revived several times” and is now targeted for a release after next year. The source also suggests that, unlike its linear predecessors, Half-Life 3 will be an open-world game including quests and non-playable characters.
Development on Half-Life 3 has reportedly been “very chaotic,” which the source points to for the delay. The game allegedly started as a “pure shooter” before moving toward puzzle solving and exploration-themed gameplay.
Half-Life 3 rumors have been flying lately, including word that it would appear at Gamescom (it didn’t) and concept art supposedly Half-Life 2:Episode Three. Fans have been waiting for a new Half-Life for years now, picketing at Valve HQ and organizing protests on Steam.
We reached out to Valve for comment on the rumor, but they declined to say anything. For now, read our speculation about the next Half-Life, and be sure to try out the free Half-Life remake Black Mesa while you wait.
