This mod, which is 2.8GB in size, overhauls the textures of Half-Life, Half-Life: Opposing.

It also has new particle effects and improved fog. Modder ‘Leaufai’ has released a new AI-enhanced HD Texture Pack for the classic Half-Life games.

Half-Life 2 Update comes with a complete lighting overhaul including enhanced lighting, more detailed world shadows, and full High Dynamic Range Lighting (HDR). This mod features beautiful lighting, countless bug fixes, and a brand new Community Commentary Mode. Half Life 2 Update is a completely free and extensive community-developed update for Half-Life 2. Now if you can’t wait for this remastered collection, I suggest giving Half-Life 2 Update a go. We also don’t know whether it will feature any major graphical improvements (like new high-resolution textures or Ray Tracing effects). As with the original Half Life, the community was able to develop mods for the game, one of the most famous being Garrys Mod. For example, we don’t know whether it will bring Half-Life 2 to Source 2 Engine or not. Unfortunately, we don’t have any other details about this mod/project. So, don’t expect to be playing Project Borealis or Boreal Alyph. However, it will NOT feature any of the upcoming fan games/mods for Half-Life 2: Episode Three. This mod will now cover the main game, as well as Episode One and Episode Two.

However, it appears that its scope has been expanded. Now in case this rings any bells, it’s the same remaster we mentioned back in 2020. According to SteamDB, the team responsible for this Remastered Collection is the same one that developed Half-Life 2: Update. It appears that a team of modders is currently working on Half-Life 2 Remastered Collection with Valve’s approval.
