I think I like zombies better with the Headcrab attached
For the first time since Half-Life: Alyx buried its beak through the face and into our dream, we could have the first new images of the game. Valve News Network, a fan channel that specializes in detecting leaks from Half-Life’s house, posted a new video containing what channel creator Tyler McVicker described as the new Half-Life: Alyx screen. The video shows a total of nine images, although we regret there’s no way to verify them.
McVicker says the screens have leaked from an internal source from Valve and they show everything from static environmental details to new, clear uniforms for the Combine Nazi aliens. You will need to watch the video yourself to see all the images, but these are the three images that get my attention the fastest.
This still shows a scene introduced in the teaser trailer, but it also includes the new uniforms I’m talking about. These armies seem to have lighter uniforms with distinct patches on their shoulders. The trailer uses this scene to represent a great opportunity for Half-Life: Watch Alyx’s VR hand – that is, raise your hand when a bunch of grumbling activists point their guns at you – but here we have can see it – for free.
This image enlarges into a combined “Infestation Control” sign. It has a strong “Warning, wet floor” vibe but with Xen monsters instead of plain tiles. I loved the small detail of the soldier who combined the darkness exploding at a tentacle-free animal. Obviously Infestation Control does not work well, as you will be able to know from the next screen.
Speaking of which, consider this a gore warning before you scroll any further. The final screenshot depicts some very disturbing body horrors.
It was really crude.
Not having enough skin or organs or anything.
Ok, good, here it is.
We have seen zombies except Headcrab before, but we have never seen them in details such abdominal pain. Watch for subcutaneous fat around the opening of the chest ribs. Blugh. This image leads to the fact that, despite the name, the zombies of Half-Life are not immortal monsters – they are living hosts of alien parasites. However, you are probably making them a favor by shooting the toilet on them until they die.
Again, no screenshots have been confirmed as legal from Valve, so please take all of them and any details they might suggest with a grain of salt. Fortunately, we won’t have to wait too long to see Half-Life: Alyx itself – it will launch in March.
Don’t have a PC ready for VR? Valve has not ruled out the console version Half-Life: Alyx.
