In an interview with Geoff Keighley (author of The Final Hours of Portal 2 and The Final Hours of Half-Life 2), Half-Life: Alyx's developers remained coy on the subject of whether Half-Life: Alyx could bridge the gap towards a virtual reality-based Half-Life 3, noting they would have to see how Half-Life: Alyx was received.

Since then, Valve has released ten other games. However, as of November 2021, three pieces of concept art are all Valve have shown of the sequel.
