[VT]EXCLUSIVE: Next-Gen Source 2 Engine Is In Development

post #1 of 62
Thread Starter

Our resident investigator Barnz has done some more digging in the Source Filmmaker script files, and he's uncovered probably some of the biggest news we've ever reported on our site.



He's found many more references to a "Source 2", but not just one vague line like our previous entry. We're only one file deep, and already it's clear that the references to "Source 2" are indeed referring to a next-gen engine that Valve is currently developing. I'm only going to show one line in this post, but there are about 60+ references here, and this one line is probably the most telling.

Going to post in rumours because it's still just based upon very limited information...However, I am interested to see what valve has to offer.

Very interesting indeed.

This is going to be interesting.

And I can't think of a better way to show off their new engine than Half-Life 3 or Episode 3 biggrin.gif

No.. I fear the internet would explode from the sheer joy if such a thing existed. It is safe only if kept forever under wraps.

If Half-Life 3 is even the slightest bit disappointing in any way then people are going to have a fit.

Uh.

You do know that Valve calls Portal 2's version of Source, Source 2, right?

Yes they do. In several interviews they've called it "Source 2" when talking about Portal 2's Engine.



DOTA 2 is also listed to be using "Source 2" by several Valve interviews...

So...
