Update: As most people figured out, this was an April’s fools. Thanks to everyone who laughed with us, hopefully we’ll see Half-life 3 for real some day!
Nassau, Bahamas – Ever since the release of our CS:GO and Minecraft servers, people have been asking – Where will you go next? What’s the next game to have revolutionized gameserver hosting? To us, the answer was always clear, as in our minds there was only one game that could top the ones we already have. Today, we are pleased to announce the launch of our Half-Life 3 servers.
The long awaited sequel in the best-selling video game series is now exclusively playable at DatHost.net, using our servers. What may come as a surprise to many is that this is now a text-based browser game and that it only comes with multiplayer, and with no singleplayer campaign.
This is a huge day for us. Not only are we exclusively launching Half-Life 3 to all DatHost users, but we’re also close to launching our first gameserver deployed in space, so that we can offer great ping and performance for anyone playing from the ISS.
– Anders Ekman, CEO, DatHost.net
