Promises a 4-5 hour campaign
I felt sad upon completingHalf-Life: Alyx, because I’d spent years before its release without newHalf-Lifeto play and then, all too quickly, it was true again. Half-Life Alyx: Levitation is exciting to me, then. It’s a mod for Half-Life: Alyx which is promising a 4-5 hour campaign, and it looks excellent in its first trailer.

One of the things singleplayer Half-Life mods usually struggle with is that they can’t match Valve’s pacing, because very few mod teams can successfully break up their combat with slickly animated and voiced story beats. The trailer above, at least, gives me hope that Levitation might manage it.
The only downside is that Levitation isn’t done yet. It’ll apparently be released “early Q3” of 2022.
If you haven’t played it yet,Half-Life: Alyx is well worth your time. It’s absolutely a Half-Life sequel, absolutely a game that only works in VR, and it’s a must-play if you already own a VR headset.
