Half-Life: Plenty of gameplay from discontinued spin-off

Half-Life is considered one of the most influential and best shooter series of all time. While Half-Life: Alyx was a new spin-off for VR, Arkane was also working on a spin-off called Ravenholm that never appeared. Plenty of game scenes from this title have now surfaced.

While Valve has been up for a long time Half-Life: Alyx Arkane, who left the Half-Life series last year as a developer, was once working on a spin-off of the franchise. This was called Ravenholm and would have had what it takes to at least partially satisfy the long-awaited fan community and provide them with new game fodder.

The makers of Dishonored however, work on this spin-off never ended and Ravenholm was consequently never released. But now Noclip has brought to light a video that is over an hour long and has plenty of game scenes from Ravenholm ready for you. The YouTube channel is known for producing really excellent documentaries regarding video games.

The latest work shows a lot of gameplay in one hour from a development version of the game that Arkane had prepared to present to Valve. Accordingly, the game scenes are not finished material, but you can at least get an impression of what Ravenholm might have become.

In the title, you would have taken on the role of Lietenant Shephard of the Opposing Force who meets Father Gregory.
