Valve Software a anuntat ca Half-Life 2: Aftermath nu va mai fi un expansion, capitol dintr-o viitoare serie ce va fi lansata regulat.

Povestea o va continua pe cea din Half-Life 2, AI-ul va fi imbunatatit, la fel si fizica jocului.
Cam atat s-au obosit cei de la Electronic Arts sa prezinte in comunicatul lor de presa.

Half-Life has been named Game of the Year by over 35 organizations worldwide. Half-Life 2: Aftermath is an all-new episode created by Valve that extends the Half-Life 2 single player adventure.

The player reprises his role of Dr. Gordon Freeman, who must immediately face the repercussions of his actions in City 17 and the Citadel. Freeman reconnects with Alyx Vance and her robot, Dog, as they continue their support of the resistance's battle against the Combine forces.
