HTC has announced that it has partnered with Valve Software and will bundle Half-Life: Alyx with the new HTC Vive Cosmos Elite headset. This offer applies to all customers, even those who have already pre-ordered the headset.

The HTC Vive Cosmos Elite launches today, and is HTC’s high-end headset featuring fan cooling and the ability to pair with other accessories such as the Valve Index’s Knuckles controllers.
Previously, Valve had announced that Half-Life: Alyx would be provided free for all Valve Index owners, and so this news marks HTC as the second company able to make a similar offer.

Half-Life: Alyx launches March 23, and is the first Half-Life game from Valve since 2007’s Half-Life 2: Episode 2. It’s a full-length game built for VR, and our hands-on preview of it made it clear that it’s once again something very special. For more, check out how Zelda influenced the game’s Gravity Gloves.
