Deadlock. Next Valve game. Previously known as Neon Prime, Citadel. Competitive third person hero-based shooter. 6 vs 6 battling on huge map with 4 lanes. Usable abilities and items. Tower defense mechanics. Fantasy setting mixed with steampunk. Magicians, weird creatures and robots. Fast travel using floating rails, similar to Bioshock Infinite.

Basically, fast-paced interesting ADHD gameplay. Combination of Dota 2, Team Fortress 2, Overwatch, Valorant, Smite, Orcs Must Die.

Hero design pretty much inspired by Dota universe. Main map references modern steampunk European city (little bit like Half-Life). Initially game had sci-fi elements inspired by Half-Life and Portal, but after bad feedback dev team decided to focus on fantasy.

This actually sounds somewhat interesting, I would have preferred HL3, but that ship has sailed.

I don't like that it's just 6v6, IMO 16vs16 would be a better fit for x4 lanes (if not 32 x 32). Think about TF2 and how the team vs team "laning" dynamic works.

Take a look at Abiotic Factor a love letter to Black Mesa in the form of a crafting survival game set in a New Mexico laboratory complex.

I haven't played it yet, but am sold from the LPs I've seen and am waiting for a sale.

Abiotic Factor looks very interesting. Love the HL1 visual style.

I wonder if it's playable solo...
