Half-Life 3 to be an open-world game – Rumor

Half-Life 3 isn’t confirmed nor do we have any idea whether it exists or not, but we have an interesting rumour courtesy of the French site, journaldugamer, which claims that the game will be open-world.

This would mean deviating from the current formula a lot, and can also be an explanation why it’s taking so long.

“A trusted source who wishes to remain anonymous told us yet confidential details the development of Half-Life 3. According to her, Valve has decided to make his legendary shooter game … open-world!,” the website reports.

“According to her, Half-Life 3 FPS will always be a very action-oriented, but with many RPG elements: open-world, quests and NPCs will be waiting for you! One of the inspirations the developers would also be the series of Elder Scrolls (Skyrim, Oblivion).”

Whatever it is, we request you to take this information with a pinch of salt. But being Half-Life fans, you probably know nothing should be trusted easily by now.
