Modder Recreates Half-Life 2’s Opening Set Piece in Half-Life: Alyx’s Engine

A nimble modder has grafted parts of Half-Life 2's opening into Half-Life: Alyx's Source 2 engine. Vect0R has recreated the moment that Gordon Freeman walks out into the City 17 courtyard at the start of Half-Life 2 in VR with Source 2, the engine that powers Half-Life: Alyx. The location is eerily quiet save for a few roaming Combine, with Wallace Breen's looming face yet to be implemented, but features better lighting than the original version, which released on the first Source engine in 2004. Instead of being planted to the ground, the player uses the VR control scheme from Half-Life: Alyx, including her pistol which must have the slider manually pulled back to reload.
