And Half-Life fans have been waiting for Half-Life 2: Episode Three or Half-Life 3, but it's been a long time since the last Half-Life game was released.

On November 18, Valve announced on Twitter their new game, but it doesn't include any 3 in its name, it's called Half-Life: Alyx. Also, it's a VR (virtual reality) game.

We’re excited to unveil Half-Life: Alyx, our flagship VR game, this Thursday at 10am Pacific Time.

This week on Thursday, the game will be introduced to the fans. However, the game has been criticized since it's a VR game and it obviously requires a VR headset, which isn't so cheap for fans all around the world.

Half Life: Alyx will not be HL3 as it is a VR title and would be the worst way to distribute a game as big as a half Life game

While some other fans are really happy and excited at the moment about the announce of the new Half-Life game, which will be released after 12 years.

I'm excited af for Half Life: Alyx, even though I don't even have a VR headset. Let's hope it's good!
