In May 2020, documentary filmmakers from NoClip presented to the world a film about the history of Arcane Studios. It told the story of several projects, including Ravenholm - the fourth episode of the second Half-Life. Now the experts have delighted the fans, releasing an hour of gameplay. 

The studio told about how the working collection of Ravenholm has survived during a conversation with NoClip a few years ago. When Valve canceled the episode, the developers did not want to just throw out the work, because they really liked the team. Specialists did not stop working on the assembly for a few weeks after the project was curtailed and saved it on their computers.

The video was recorded in 1080p with a frame rate of 60 fps, but the final video was released in 4K to "keep the recordings in the best quality". So far, the gameplay is accompanied only by English subtitles, but it is likely that over time, translations into other languages ​​will appear.
