Those desperate to continue with the Half-Life 2 saga will be disappointed with news originating from community site halflife2.net, which has posted parts of an email between themselves and Director of Marketing at Valve, Doug Lombardi. In the email Mr Lombardi said:
“Just wanted to give you a quick update on Aftermath, specically [sic] its ETA. We're working very hard to finish this new episode for HL2, however, its going to take us a bit more time to get it into top shape. As such, the target release for this one is now Feb/March of next year.â€
It wouldn’t be a Half-Life title if it did adhere to the rules of elongated development times and delays so perhaps the news shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise. We’ll have more on Half-Life 2: Aftermath shortly…
