Resident Evil and Half-Life fans, here is something truly incredible for you today. FlamingosPeak Workshop released an Early Access version of Requiem for Ravenholm, a mod that turns Resident Evil 9 into a Half-Life game.
This mod replaces Characters, Enemies, Weapons, Props, and more with those from the Half-Life universe. For instance, Leon is now Gordon Freeman, and Victor is now the G-Man.
So, while this isn’t a total conversion, it can at least give us a small taste of what a new Half-Life game could look like in 2026. Do note, though, that since this is an Early Access version, you may encounter some bugs and visual glitches. These will be fixed in future versions.
Rumor has it that Valve will reveal the next main entry in the Half-Life series, Half-Life 3, alongside the launch date for the Steam Machine. However, I recommend taking this with a grain of salt. Last year, we were flooded with Half-Life 3 rumors, and none of them came true. Until Valve makes an official announcement, it’s best to treat any HL3 speculation lightly.
You can go ahead and download the mod from this link. At the end of the article, you can also find a trailer for it. This should give you a pretty good idea of what you can expect from it. So, be sure to watch it.
Speaking of Resident Evil Requiem, a few days ago, I shared a VR Mod for it. This mod will let you play the entire game in VR. So, if you own a VR headset, this is a must-have mod for you.
Then we have this mod that lets you dismember all the dead zombies. This mod will make the game a bit more gory, so some of you may like it. There is also a mod that increases the number of zombies you’ll encounter, as well as a mod that replaces the voices of all the Lickers with Michael Jackson. Finally, you can use this mod to replace The Girl with the Xenomorph from the Alien franchise.
Another cool video to watch is this one. This video shows what the game could have looked like with fixed camera angles. So, if you are an old-school Resident Evil fan, you should definitely watch it.
Resident Evil Requiem is right now one of the most optimized PC games of 2026. Moreover, it supports real-time Path Tracing on PC. You can check out our PC Performance Analysis here. We also have separate benchmarks for Path Tracing and DLSS 4.5.
Have fun!
