A brand-new Half-Life: Alyx mod, titled Half-Life: Incursion, adds an action-packed horde mode to the VR shooter.

Since launch new fan-made content, such as the Levitation mod for Half-Life: Alyx, has kept the immersive experience alive.

June 2, 2022 is bringing the next frequently scheduled PlayStation State of Play presentation, where trailers, gameplay, and announcements are expected. Sony's calendar year started off with big titles in Horizon Forbidden West and Gran Turismo 7, but the company's attention has more recently been centered on the relaunch of PlayStation Plus as it attempts a new model to rival Xbox's Game . As the industry approaches a summer filled with gaming news, Sony and the PlayStation brand will follow suit, with an explicit promise of a look at games coming to PSVR 2.

Modders Corey Laddo and Shawn Snelling have announced Half-Life: Alyx Levitation, a new mod for the VR title that will boast several hours of fresh story content. Half-Life: Alyx launched to critical acclaim in 2020 for Steam-compatible VR devices, debuting what many consider the best virtual reality experience on any platform to date. The experience takes place five years before the events of Half-Life 2 and places players in the role of a teenage Alyx Vance.

The Desolation mod for Portal 2 features a graphical overhaul that will bring the game's visuals up to par with Half-Life: Alyx. Notably, Portal 2's Desolation mod first entered the public consciousness in late 2020, with development team Emberspark teasing a fan-made campaign packed with a new original story, original characters, and fresh locations. A gameplay teaser from the group also showcased a cybernetic Portal Gun referred to as the ARM. Apart from the occasional OST-related release, Emberspark has kept quiet about Desolation for quite some time.

The first part of Half-Life: Alyx's BioShock mod hit VR platforms in late 2020, allowing players to explore the decaying underwater dystopia in virtual reality.

A fascinating datamine teases several new Valve games, including a follow-up to Half-Life: Alyx and a new Portal project. The beloved developer is know for creating the Half-Life and Portal series, alongside the digital distribution platform Steam, but their output of new games has become nearly non-existent in recent years. The recent launch of Valve's Steam Deck handheld console brought gamers back to the quirky world of Portal with a demo called Aperture Desk Job, and this short title may contain hints at the developer's next titles.

XboxEra co-host Nick Baker claims Sony and Valve have worked out a deal to bring Half-Life: Alyxto PlayStation VR 2. The critically acclaimed Alyx Vance-starring adventure launched on PC in early 2020 and performed well commercially out of the gate. Half-Life: Alyx even inspired the purchase of roughly one million VR units, according to reports that made the rounds in the weeks following its rollout. As pundits and fans alike have already proclaimed, such a project coming to Sony's new VR headset would mark an incredible boon for the platform.Sony let loose cursory details about PSVR 2 in 2020, devoting much of its public-facing attention to the controllers that are now known as Sense controllers. Months of rumors and leaks filled in many blanks regarding the headset itself, a number of which were proven accurate earlier this week during Sony's brief PlayStation segment at CES 2022. Said segment confirmed the PSVR 2 name, 4K capabilities, eye-tracking features, single cord set-up, and previously outed foveated rendering technology. These specs suggest Half-Life: Alyx would be right at home on PlayStation's new VR device; reportedly, Sony and Valve came to the same conclusion.Related: Valve Has New Games To Announce After Half-Life: AlyxIn response to a post from independent analyst Benji-Sales on Twitter, XboxEra co-host Nick Baker claimed sources told him that Sony and Valve entered an agreement of some sort for Half-Life: Alyx to appear on PlayStation VR 2. While Baker's not sure when such a partnership will bear fruit, the XboxEra co-founder said he assumed that Alyx's eventual PSVR 2 release counted as "one of those open secrets."

Neither Sony nor Valve has hinted at the possibility of Half-Life: Alyx migrating to PSVR. However, it's worth noting that the two partnered in the past on Portal 2 cross-platform matchmaking between Steam and PS3, even after Valve CEO Gabe Newell blasted the PS3's esoteric Cell processor.Despite the recent news blowout for PSVR 2, many of the most significant details remain under lock and key. Sony has yet to showcase the headset, for example, and pricing and release information seemingly won't surface anytime soon. This strategy mirrors the hardware manufacturer's PS5 reveal, so perhaps major PSVR 2 news will emerge during the summer months.Next: PSVR 2 Will Reportedly Enter Mass Production SoonHalf-Life: Alyx is available to play across various PC-compatible headsets but a potential PlayStation VR 2 version hasn't been confirmed.Source: Nick Baker/Twitter
