How To Get Half-Life: Alyx Free

Did you know you can get Half-Life: Alyx for free? Valve's newly revealed Half-Life VR game doesn't have an exact release date just yet, but you have until the end of 2019 to claim your free copy now.

If you own or purchase Valve's VR headset Index, Half-Life: Alyx will appear in your Steam library when it launches in March 2020. There are no strings attached and no code to enter. Those who pick up Index before the end of this year will also receive a handful of exclusive bonuses, including alternate gun skins (for Alyx and for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive) and more. Even if you don't purchase an Index, you can still save some money on Alyx if you take advantage of the pre-purchase promotion running through March 30, 2020.

Half-Life: Alyx was announced as a full-length VR-exclusive entry in the Half-Life series. Valve gave us our first look at gameplay in the game's announcement trailer. We've compiled a list of everything we know about the game so far, including its estimated length, what platforms it'll come to, its price, when and where it takes place in the Half-Life universe, and more.
