Will Feature A World With Linear But Open Areas!

Story Highlight
  • PSSR was previously reported to be causing visual glitches in many games. 
  • Now, Digital Foundry has revealed that technology, while looking promising,g isn’t perfect as it makes Black Ops 6 look worse on the pro console than the base one.
  • This might cause some concerns among the fans, but PSSR is Sony’s first-ever AI-driven upscaling technology for a console.

Recently, Valve released a massive update for Half-Life 2 that attracted thousands of new players. Many of those who had already played the game were also forced to play it once more, and a new all-time peak was born.

This has only increased the fandom’s demand for a sequel to this two-decade-old video game. It seems like Valve is gearing up to announce Half-Life 3 soon enough, as a new report has revealed some interesting information.

Why it matters: Half-Life 2 is one of the most iconic games, and to this date, the fandom is demanding a sequel. While some reports have already confirmed the game’s existence, fans still want Valve to announce it officially. 

Tyler McVikcer has revealed some new details about the next Half-Life project. He is known for some interesting scoops when it comes to anything related to Valve. The insider revealed that Valve is now conducting gunplay tests on a very low level, and a lot of features from its voxel-based destruction engine, Arty, will be in the title. 

McVikcer further revealed that NPCs will have different reactions based on the NPCs available in the same area. Also, it seems like Valve is focusing heavily on innovation rather than improving graphics

Also, the game is reported to feature more immersive sim elements. These new scoops are pretty huge and give fans more hope for a sequel they have always been hoping for.
