This high-end virtual reality rig joins a handful of other VR experiences looking to break the mold of fully interactive experiences. Valve will be releasing Half-Life: Alyx to the Valve Index, reviving a long dormant and highly acclaimed franchise.
Valve touts the Index as a collection of leading edge VR hardware and we’re looking forward to finally getting our hands on the 2.0 Base Station with their ergonomic controllers.Giving gamers a number of options for those looking to upgrade their VR experience, all the items are offered individually as well as in various combinations. This customizable experience will surely enable gamers to find what’s most comfortable for them and comfort is essential to the VR experience. Quality is just as essential and from the sounds of it, the Valve Index has that covered too.
Gamers will be able to explore environments from Half-Life: Alyx in their Valve Index home space in Canada and Japan, joining the US and European regions. Apparently, Alyx’s arsenal can be customized more than ever before with alternate gun skins to embellish. Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Dota 2 gamers will be able to unlock exclusive Half-Life: Alyx-themed content to promote the VR experience.
