- Many recent reports are hinting toward a Half-Life 3 announcement soon enough.
- Another insider has backed those reports by claiming that the game will be announced this year.
- Valve has ignored the game for over 2 decades, so fans are skeptical about believing the rumors unless they are confirmed officially.
Half-Life 3 has recently become a hot topic due to many rumors about its development. There are many reports that have almost confirmed its existence, but fans are still keeping their expectations in check until Valve says something.
That is understandable, given the gaming giant hasn’t said anything about a sequel for over two decades. Recently, a report revealed that Valve has already begun early closed playtesting of Half-Life 3.
Shortly after that, the voice actor of G-Man teases more news regarding the franchise in 2025. Now, a reliable insider has also claimed that we will witness the announcement of Half-Life 3 in 2025.
Why it matters: Half-Life 2 was released in 2004, and just recently, on its 20th anniversary, Valve released a massive update that broke its all-time previous high on Steam. So, this year would be the perfect opportunity to announce a sequel.
Jason Schreier, one of the most reliable industry insiders, has recently given his list of predictions that he thinks will happen in 2025.
The insider thinks GTA 6 will be delayed, the industry will rebound driven by PC Gaming primarily, Ubisoft will undergo significant transformation, Hollow Knight: Silksong will release this year, AI will have its Icarus moment, Xbox will go full multiplatform with Sony following its footsteps, and Half-Life 3 announcement will be made this year.
Fans are quite skeptical about his predictions but some of them are backed by some facts. While there can’t be much said about the rest of the predictions, the Half-Life 3 one sounds pretty reasonable, given how many reports have already hinted at its announcement in 2025.
Still, we would recommend the fans take this news with a pinch of salt as these are mere predictions from a renowned insider. It is very likely that Valve has something in store for the fandom in 2025, which could be related to the Half-Life franchise.
