01Overview

Half-Life 2: Episode Two is a first-person shooter set in the aftermath of the Citadel's destruction. Players control Gordon Freeman as he and Alyx Vance travel through forests and underground tunnels toward a resistance base, facing Combine forces and new enemy types along the way. The game emphasizes vehicle-based combat sequences alongside the series' physics-driven puzzles and gunplay. Episode Two is the second in a trilogy of episodes that extend the Half-Life 2 story. Gordon and Alyx were last seen leaving City 17 as the Citadel erupted. In this episode you have to battle and race against Combine forces as you cross the White Forest to deliver a crucial information packet, stolen from the Citadel, to an enclave of resistance scientists. The episode adds new weapons, vehicles and newly spawned creatures. Alyx fights alongside you and the area includes the Antlions that live in the region. The game supports controllers and includes developer commentary and the Source SDK. It is a single-player game.
