Leaked images and a new report suggest that Valve will soon unveil its own VR headset, separate from the HTC Vive it currently supports.
According to UploadVR‘s sources, leaked images of a VR headset posted on the photo-sharing site Imgur are, in fact, prototype versions of a future Valve device.
The headset will reportedly have a 135* field of view, putting it in line with the most recent HTC Vive display, and could come with new “Knuckles” motion controllers. Two cameras and integrated headphones also appear to be included.
Perhaps most interestingly, however, is that the same report claimed the headset could come bundled with a Half-Life game. This would likely not be Half-Life 3, but a prequel game, instead. Valve has not released a new Half-Life game since Half-Life 2: Episode 2 more than a decade ago.
