Excited I’m joining @bossastudios to direct an unannounced PC action co-op game trying to do something new in the narrative space using AI.

Not much is known about this new title, although Faliszek has confirmed in a response to a Twitter user that it wouldn’t be a VR title. This technically means that there’s still a possibility it’s Half Life 3.
This project is not VR but still have some VR side projects going.

He went on to say that although he’d be based in Seattle, Bossa Studios is currently hiring for its London studios.
Faliszek departed in May of this year, after working at Valve for over 12 years, and has writing credits on games that include both of the Half-Life episodes, and Portal. Faliszek worked alongside Eric Wolpaw, and Mark Laidlaw, who’ve both left Valve in the last 12 months. Faliszek penned the aforementioned games, as well as Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2.
