With Half-Life 2: Episode Three planned to be the grand finale’ of the Half-Life 2 story arc, you may be forgiven for wondering what’s next in the parade of constant interruptions for the long suffering Gordon Freeman. Well, we can keep wondering, but at least we know there will be (half) life after Episode Three as, quite unsurprisingly, a new sequel is definitely on the cards.
The confirmation came from Valve’s Dave Lombardi who simply had this to say:
We haven’t announced anything specific, but Half-Life won’t end at Episode Three – hang on to your crowbars!
So there you have it. Episode Three is not the end of the Half-Life universe, as if there was any doubt it would be. But what will happen? Will the G-Man have a brand new contract for our silent hero? Will Dr. Freeman awake in a different timeline? Will the headcrabs still be annoying as ever? Start your rampant speculation … NOW!
