Modders ‘BriJee’ and ‘Mike Nov’ announced that Half-Life 2 Overcharged will release on Steam in February 2022. In order to celebrate this announcement, the modders released a new gameplay trailer that you can find below.
Half-Life 2 Overcharged is a mod that aims to fix, improve and enhance numerous features and gameplay elements of Valve’s classic shooter.
The mod will feature a completely reworked gunplay, extended maps, uncut locations and over 50 weapons. Moreover, it will have accurate player screen movement, and will allow players to slow down time.
Players can also expect a tweaked AI combat logic, which will make enemies a bit tougher. Furthermore, the duo has added some new combine units that players will fight. Additionally, there will be a “Fire Mode” feature, and over 300 gameplay options.
We’ll be sure to let you know when this mod will come out. Until then, enjoy the following gameplay trailer!

So SMOD on Steroids. Neat
This looks pretty sweet! Gives me a reason to replay half-life 2 again in the future.
Looks liker sh*t that has nothing to do with Half-Life anymore. MMod is still superior.
It’s just guns and gun related features, you talk like half life doesn’t even have those.
Valve changed the Alyx vance voice actress.. so I don’t care anymore.
Did the original va died?
She got older
Gabe likes them young it seems…
Interesting enough to give it try. They added a lot of extras which may make it have less a tactile feel than HL2. I wish someone could make tau jumping better like in HL1 and add bunnyjump lol – and give the npc’s the same ability.
” over 50 weapons”
when are you gonna use that, hl2 isnt combat heavy.
“3d scopes”
am i the only one who hates those? They are so disorienting.
also the slow mo is the typical mod slow mo, just slows down time, its not that simple you have to make the player faster than the enemies in order to work like fear and max payne.
Blame Valve.
The original design language for Half-Life 2 up to Left 4 Dead was all about limited weapons. Half Life 2, Team Fortress 2, Portal, Left 4 Dead – very few guns. It was about your interaction with the environment.
Then the Team Fortress 2 updates and Left 4 Dead 2 decided to discard that old design language for “more is more”. And that’s when I stopped being a Valve fan. Not like I’ve missed any games.
“just slows down time, its not that simple you have to make the player faster than the enemies in order to work like fear and max payne.”
That makes a easy game already a cakewalk.
then dont make slow mo? I mean why does this game has over 50 weapons? its too easy already and ai is pathetic.
50 weapons doesn’t mean crap on challange, Tarkov have way more guns to choose from.
sigh….
Vanilla game is easy (for the most part), but we are talking about a modded game, not vanilla.
still its not built for combat, its not like the first game or fear.
Fear is super easy if you use slow mo. And they promised to change the levels.
true
This mod makes Half-Life 2 becomes just like Call of Duty but in steroids. To be honest the idea is not bad but way more overcharged with nonsense, bring old aliens from old games and cut contents was pretty enough.
Half life Thr… oh 2.5….
I feel like most of these features are overkill or just useless.
The MMOD only was already enough. (check it out on moddb)
I’m more excited by the upcoming new version of “Half-Life 2 Update”.
Please make a story about it when it comes out!
that’s updated only for the steamdeck consoletard peasants. so that it runs better on their filthy handheld cuckdeck peasantry toys. happening cancelled
LOL
LOLBASED.
There’s comments in your Disqus where you speak english and not this fake internet ebonics bs. F R A U D
Look like a nice SMOD variant
Why are tards comparing this to MMOD? This isn’t supposed to be a vanilla like experience.
I think these guys have missed the point of the Half-Life gameplay, there’s no need for ADS or 3D scopes or 50+ weapons. It’s all about the environment.
Pls stop modding this game. Get a life my friend.
Half-Life 2 now looks “overcharged”! I mean some things are overdone, but cool nonetheless!
MMOD does a lot of what is shown here…but new mods are always welcome!
Please give us HL2 remake in Source Engine 2 – now that would be great. I mean just look at Black Mesa, yes it took an eternity before they released the final version, but what a superb job it was. One of the best remakes in my opinion just like RE2 remake.
They need to switch to 64bits.
Black Mesa has had a few problems running a few maps reaching the end of the black mesa complex. As it ran out of memory.
So they’re just rereleasing mediocre Smod tactical/remastered/redux mods from 2007 and calling it new now?
