Gabe Newell over at Valve posted on Reddit that they are working on a new single player game.

What is the status of Half Life 3/Half Life 2 Episode 3?

The number 3 must not be said

Is Valve still working on any fully-fledged single player games?

Yes

An unidentified anonymous source at Valve has said that Half Life 3 has been cancelled. Is that source legitimate?

I personally believe all unidentified anonymous sources on the Internet.

At this point, I doubt they really have any incentive to make a good single player game. They get lots of money from TF2 and their MOBA, and Steam earns them even more. I will honestly be un surprised if they end up making the next Duke Nukem Forever.

Half-Life?

<shuffles through ancient scrolls, raising clouds of dust>

Ah. The ancients spoke of a "Half-Life". It has turned to steam and ascended into the skies, but it was prophesized to come back in year of Gaben Our Savior... year... ok who tore off the bottom of the scroll?

Half life 1 was released in 1998 so maybe they are aiming for 2018 release date? 20th anniversary :M

I would very much like to see a single player Valve game, not necessarily a Half-Life or a Portal. Their games have a very specific high quality vibe to them, I love how the storyline unfolds and is never "in your face" and stuff. I just hope they don't mean a VR-exclusive title, because it will be quite a while before I can simply go out and buy an Oculus or something.

Dunno why people would be against them going for VR-focused design. We should be gladdened by the possibility of companies employing new tech for once, especially since VR so fits Valve's immersion focused FP design approach.
