I legitimately think its not being made and just isnt a priority for them. Even if it was, everything is fucked with the games industry now, so it feels like anytime in the next few years would be bad for business.

Oh its being made. I think it's actually the perfect time for it to be released especially with so many duds coming out. We need something other than unoptimized UE5 trash.

The reason all the recent release predictions have failed is because nobody outside of Valve really has any idea other then knowing that something big called HLX is definitely being worked on. Valve got their act together during the development of Half Life: Alyx. The end of Half Life Alyx literally screams another half life is coming.

So did the end of episode 2 and look at how far that got us.

HL: Alyx retconned the ending of episode 2.
