An alien life-form as preserved and squished into a massive capsule. Let’s put it to use.
Valve
Alyx shoves it into this machine, which then crushes green ooze out of said creature.
Valve
Then that life force is stitched into your hand, all while your overseer (who watches you via a connected camera) insists that it’ll be fine.
Valve
The game includes two types of teleportation options for movement, along with a “free-walking” mode. In both teleportation cases, you’ll aim your warping feet in the distance, and you’ll see their location and orientation ahead of you.
Valve
Here, Alyx has warped ahead and shot the Headcrab off of the poor soul ahead.
Valve
As Alyx, you can use your hands, or objects like a gun’s barrel, to move and nudge nearby objects.
Valve
The first hint we’ve seen of a currency system in the game.
Valve
You’ll use “resin” to upgrade your weapons.
Valve
And you’ll need upgraded firepower when facing aggressive, familiar foes. Thankfully, the bulletproof glass stopped this Headcrab from latching onto your face.
Valve
The only good Headcrab …
Valve
… is a dead Headcrab. (But, seriously, it’s nice to see this terrifying creature’s model so grotesquely updated over a decade later.)
Valve
If you see a loose, glowing syringe, grab it and stab it into your opposing hand for a quick health boost.
Valve
Teleportation during combat.
Valve
Yes, you can grab car doors and turn them into makeshift cover during a firefight.
Valve
Aim at the weak point.
Valve
Massive damage.
Valve
The Gravity Gloves are hard to show off in screenshot form, but here’s a sequence. Step one: we try to manipulate that thin, glowing object below.
Valve
Step two: a familiar foe grabs it with its tongue.
Valve
Step three: We shoot it out of said creature’s mouth, killing it and distending its innards in the process.
Valve
The series’ mix of man-made and alien-made environs, colliding in creepy fashion once again.
Valve
Let’s use the Gravity Gloves to snag that glowing, orange thing from this suspended creature. What could go wrong?
