Valve May Be About to Release the Orange Box 2

Valve’s updates about their upcoming titles are so dry that even the slightest bit of news causes chaos in the gaming community. Fans of the critically-acclaimed developer survive on pure copium that maybe, just maybe, Valve will drop something in the future and quench their thirst.

For far too long, we have been fed the delusion that the next Half-Life is in development and nearly ready for release, yet we can’t help but get excited at even the smallest possibility that the rumor has some credibility. However, recent leaks have hinted at a dish that may be cooking inside Valve’s heavily guarded kitchens.

The Orange Box 2 may be in the cards for Valve

If you didn’t know, “The Orange Box” was a bundle of games released by Valve nearly two decades ago, that contained some of their finest titles like Half-Life 2, Team Fortress 2, and Portal, with their DLCs at a reasonable price. According to recent leaks and reports from dataminers like Tyler McVicker, Valve has been developing a new project codenamed “Tf”, which indicates that the next Team Fortress game might be in the works.

What’s exciting about this leak is the possibility of Valve being back in the development saddle to make more games, and that isn’t the end of it. Valve is also working on a project codenamed ‘HLX’ that suspiciously sounds like a potential Half-Life 3.

When even the actor behind G-Man, Mike Shapiro, fueled the possibilities of a third Half-Life game, you know they’re up to something. If the stars align and we somehow end up getting new Team Fortress and Half-Life games, it’ll take us one step closer to The Orange Box 2.

With Portal 3 not in development and Left 4 Dead 3 being literally left for dead, it won’t be a true sequel to the previous Orange Box, but add Deadlock to that combo, and you get a new Box regardless. Unfortunately, take all of it with a grain of salt as it’s Valve at the end of the day, and “Tf” could just be a string of codes, nothing more.

Even if “Tf” ultimately leads to nothing, Half-Life 3 has a high chance of becoming a reality, which is honestly an insane thing to say, but so damn exciting. It’s unreal to think that Gordon Freeman might be picking up the crowbar sooner than expected.

Valve could do the funniest thing ever and drop Half-Life 3 just before Grand Theft Auto VI takes the spotlight. Rumors of the title being in development have been circling for years, but 2025 might be the year when all those rumors take shape and breach into reality.

, revealing that Half-Life 3 is not only in development, but it’s also “playable end-to-end”, which leads us to believe that Valve has been developing it for a long time. He further explained that it’ll not be a VR title like Half-Life: Alyx, indicating that it’ll be a traditional Half-Life story.

also discovering “HLX” files in Deadlock’s code, it’s just a matter of time before we see an official full-fledged reveal of the highly anticipated title. The copium of fans might be rewarded after all, and you know what? The world could use a new Half-Life game right now.

If they finally decide to release Half-Life 3, hopefully, it arrives on consoles, unlike previous Valve titles. So, what do you think about a potential Orange Box sequel by Valve? Do you think there is truth to this rumor? Or is it just another day at the copium office? Share your thoughts and opinions in the comment section below.
