RUMOR: Source 2 Engine Coming Soon

RUMOR: Source 2 Engine Coming Soon

None

According to some hackers at ValveTime.net, there are references in the Source Filmmaker application that seem to point to a Source 2 Engine. Many fans have taken this to mean that Valve is working on the second iteration of their Source engine as we speak.

Though simple text references may be sketchy at best, reports say there is much more than that including several tool icons referencing Source 2 Tools. These references also apparently label the engine as “next-gen” which has led many fans to believe that it is being designed for next-gen video games.



Valve has not yet announced any next-gen projects and has not officially announced any sort of Source 2 engine project. However, several popular games such as Half-Life 2, Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress 2, and Portal were built in the Source engine. It should only stand to reason that any next-gen Valve projects would be put on Source 2 if the engine actually exists.

Right now, this is mostly just speculation, but we will bring you more information about this supposed Source 2 project as it becomes available.
