Report: "Half-Life 3" to Release in 2026 Alongside New Steam Machine
A recent anonymous user on the foreign Reddit forum revealed that "Half-Life 3" will be officially released before the end of this year, and a new version of Steam Machine will be launched simultaneously.

The key details of this leak include:
Sources say that Valve is preparing to launch a new Steam Machine, with the release date specifically synchronized with "Half-Life 3," and both products will be launched together.
Valve is currently concentrating all its resources on these two projects. The user stated that more official news will be released in the coming two weeks.
It is worth mentioning that rumors about "Half-Life 3" appear every year, and anonymous leakers on Reddit are often pranksters. However, considering the success of "Half-Life: Alyx" and related rumors about the "HLX" project, players' expectations for "Half-Life 3" are even higher.
