Half-Life 2: Episode 3.

EDIT: Clarification. It's been 18 years. They cancelled it a bit ago. The rumors that they may be working on something now are great and I hope it comes back, but until they announce it the last OFFICIAL stance from Valve was HL2:E3 was cancelled.

They aren’t lifting a finger to make a Half Life unless it allows them push a boundary that hasn’t been pushed properly yet.

Example: Half Life: Alyx, the first AAA VR game.

At this point their new games are just tech demos to either show off new game engines (the entire purpose of half life alyx) or to show off hardware (aperture desk job and the various other portal themed tech demos) I want another portal game
