We’ve been busy since our last dev blog! The outpouring of community support has been wonderful and is a huge motivator for each of us on the dev team. Thank you all so much for your support!

In fact, you’ve motivated us so much that we have more news to share!

Celebrating One Year

As many of you know from our last dev blog, our one-year anniversary of active development falls on June 12th. We’d love to celebrate with the community, and to do that, we’re happy to announce that we’ve set an internal release window for HL2:RA’s Parts 1, 2, and 3. We’re aiming to make all of these assets available to the public between the 14th and the 18th of this month.

To give you some idea of what you can expect in these packs, we’ve put together some media in our Project 17 environments that contain several of our upcoming HL2:RA assets.

HL2:RA By the Numbers

This release represents countless hours spent by all of us to create the best content we can muster to support the Half-Life: Alyx modding community.
