Just as the call finishes, Russell and Eli discover something.

She reports normal CP activity but adds that she noticed the Combine moving supplies into the Quarantine Zone for unknown reasons. She receives a call from her father Eli and his mechanic friend Russell as they attempt to steal a Combine reactor. Introįive years before the destruction of the Citadel and Eli Vance’s death, a young Alyx Vance performs reconnaissance on the continued construction of the Citadel in City 17.

Alyx entered full production using Valve’s new Source 2 engine in 2016, with the largest team in Valve’s history. Recognizing the demand for a large-scale VR game, they experimented with prototypes using their various intellectual properties, such as Portal, and found that Half-Life best suited VR. After several failed attempts to develop further Half-Life projects, Valve began experimenting with VR in the mid-2010s, and released a collection of VR minigames, The Lab, in 2016. The previous Half-Life game, Episode Two, was released in 2007.
