IT’S HAPPENING!
It looks likeHalf-LiferemakeBlack Mesatruly is approaching its final release. After giving fans a taste of atechnical beta for the “Xen” chapterof the game, developer Crowbar Collective has announced that a public beta for the finale of its title will be happening on June 16, 2025. Only the first two chapters will be available, but the others will be made available a few weeks later.
Realistically, this is the final step before a proper launch. Once Crowbar Collective is able to defeat bugs that users report, it should be smooth sailing for an official launch. I can’t believe I’m actually typing this, butBlack Mesais likely going to release in 2019. At least somethingHalf-Liferelated will be coming out in the near future.
If you still haven’t picked upBlack Mesa, theSteam Summer Sale currently has the game at 60% off. For a cool $7.99, you’re able to get in on a really good reimagining of Gordon Freeman’s inaugural adventure and see what all the fuss is with Valve’s once legendary series. Now if only we could get this team working onHalf-Life 3, maybe we can finally get the conclusion we’ve been waiting nearly two decades for.
