It was announced today that the highly anticipated Half-Life mod Black Mesa will be released in two weeks! Keep in mind that there is still work to be done on the mod, but will be released to show how much work has been completed in the past seven years. Project Leader, Carlos Montero, shared information regarding the mod:
Community Update
We’re freaking out over here! It is so exciting to share this news with you!
You can now Download the Black Mesa Soundtrack, courtesy of our very own Joel Nielsen, at the very generous price of whatever you want! Enjoy and share!
In the near future you’ll see our Website, Wiki and Forums all taken down temporarily for renovations.
On September 14th you will see the first release of Black Mesa! This will include our re-envisioning of Half-Life all the way up to Lambda Core. We believe this is a great way to provide a complete-feeling 8-10 hour experience with a solid ending, make our fans happy and help us make the best overall game possible.We are still working hard on Xen and BMDM, but instead of making you wait we are giving you Black Mesa as soon as it’s ready! We’re doing our best to help bring the immense vision of this project into reality, and we are very excited for what the future brings!
High-Fives Yo,
Carlos Montero – Project Leader”
