The Black Mesa team has released two new screenshots from the upcoming Xen levels of this Source remake of the classic Half-Life game. Although there isn’t any ETA yet on when the Xen levels will be released, these screenshots will give you an idea of the art style that the team aims to create.
Black Mesa’s Xen was originally meant to come out in 2017. In June 2017, the development team claimed that these levels have been delayed until December 2017 and in November 2017 the team announced a new delay. Since then, there is no ETA on when we’ll finally play these highly anticipated levels.
In April 2018, the Black Mesa team released a massive patch for Black Mesa that improved most dynamic shadows flickering, most dynamic lights flickering on lower quality levels Nvidia GPUs, featured settings optimization for new deferred lighting and shadows, and improved the overall quality and performance.
Enjoy the screenshots and stay tuned for more!

There’s no debate. Any grind that makes you wish you could skip it, is too much. End of story.
Remember that PC Gamer has form when it comes to ethics scandals pertaining to Ubisoft so take anything they say with a huge grain of salt.
The only remake in history, that is obsolete, before it’s even completed. That’s an accomplishment.
Skywind comes to mind.
Don’t hold your breath. The stupid is only getting worse, as people are now buying more digital instead. When you’re stupid enough to buy anything Ubisoft, you double down on the stupid, and also buy digital. The modern society we live in.
So close! So close!
Retail copies will continue to fall, sadly, we live in a digital society now. Odyssey is one of the top selling games on Steam right now.
Unfortunately, it’s far from flopped.
Gah, its the even worse than Duke Nukem. This is taking more than forever.. -.-
Valve has taught these developers well!
You have no idea what you’re talking a/b
Wow this is REALLY old news. Did this mandate a new article?
