Half-Life came out 25 years ago tomorrow and to celebrate Valve ahve released an anniversary update. It includes four new multiplayer maps, updated graphics settings, and fully verified Steam Deck support. It also includes some new multiplayer models and skins, including proto-Barney and the original design for Gordon Freeman, pictured above.
Half-Life is free right now, as Valve celebrates the game's anniversary. While no one can argue with a free game, we at PCGamesN love the Steam series so much that we're always talking about mods for each entry, so I've put together some wacky, brilliant, and overhauling community projects that new and old players alike really need to give a try.
