While Valve is returning to the Half-Life franchise after more than a decade with its special VR experience Half-Life: Alyx This year, the company says it is "not at all" to make another game with a lot of rumors: Left 4 Dead 3.
In a statement to IGN, Valve said that it "briefly analyzes [d] the other 4 left-handed opportunities in the last few years," but that it doesn't work in Left 4 Dead now and doesn't work for years.
The new Left 4 Dead game has been rumored for almost a decade, especially in the form of leak and plans excavated in files and source code in Valve & # 39; s Source game engine. Some of those functions are in the trusts not in Left 4 Dead 3 created by Tyler McVicker of Valve News Network YouTube channel. McVicker has published videos on leaks and other information on Left 4 Dead's separatist projects, including one that he reported canceled in 2017.
But it was McVicker's latest tweet about Left 4 Dead VR for the game that stirred speculation about the game's existence and illness. In December, Taken by McVicker that "Left 4 VR is dead is real," and with the recent confirmation of Half-Life: Alyx, that tweet was widely interpreted to mean that L4D VR was still active. In new video posted Friday, McVicker explained that his reference to Left 4 Dead VR “had to do with the kind of development in 2017 that I had received and that I was working on the project.
"All of this I said on this subject," McVicker continued, saying his comments were distorted by sports websites.
They were also misrepresented as a fact by China's HTC VR president, Alvin Wang Graylin. On Friday, Graylin slides sent in tiles from the presentation he was offering on VR styles in 2020. One of those slides includes the line "Valve HL Alyx / LFD3 will drive consumers with the desire for AAA studio," leading some to believe that Graylin had insider knowledge of Left 4 Dead, given Valve's past relationship with HTC.
But Valve has misused those rumors now. In the meantime, fans of Left 4 Dead will have to stay satisfied with the first two games, or one of their next spiritual successors, such as GTFO either Back 4 Blood, the last of which was developed by the original developer of Left 4 Dead Turtle Rock.
