The fan-made mod will take around four to five hours to complete and will see players investigate a mysterious levitating building, there seems to be more of a focus on action and thriller based on Levitation’s trailer.
The free downloadable mod is being developed in collaboration between SFM animator Corey Laddo and level designer/artist Shawn Snelling who is better known as CS: GO map creator FMPONE. The project was originally announced in July, the Levitation Mod is set will add an entirely new story and environments which will release this summer according to a trailer description of the mod.
The trailer definitely gives Half-Life: Alyx players a good look at the upcoming content which looks to see the return of G-Man and Russell.
