When Half-Life: Counter-Strike was remade as Counter-Strike: Source, it was bundled in all retail versions of Half-Life 2, as well as all of the initial digital versions. It was bundled with Half-Life in many subsequent packages, including Half-Life: Platinum Pack and Half-Life: Platinum.

Due to originally being a mod of Half-Life, the game shared several assets with the 1998 game, including Black Mesa containers, vehicles and scientists, with the Black Mesa logos visible in several maps in the retail version implicitly setting them in the same universe. Set in various locations around the world with little connection to the events of the main Half-Life story, the game is a multiplayer shooter in which players assume the roles of members of combating teams of the governmental counter-terrorist forces and various terrorist militants opposing them. After some cooperation between the original team and Valve's developers, Valve sold the game in retail, retitled Half-Life: Counter-Strike. In April 2000, Valve acquired the rights to the fan-made modification Counter-Strike. An Xbox Live Arcade expansion was released on October 22, 2008, and its sequel, Portal 2, was released on April 19, 2011. Portal has been acclaimed as one of the most original games in 2007, receiving praise for its unique gameplay and darkly humorous story. The game is the spiritual successor to Narbacular Drop, with many of the same team members working on the game. In the later stages of the game, the player battles GLaDOS, a corrupt artificial intelligence computer that monitors her every move. The player controls a test subject named Chell as she moves through the laboratories of Black Mesa's primary rival, Aperture Science, completing various tests with a device that allows her to create linked portals in physical space. The first game in the series, Portal, was initially released alongside Episode Two in The Orange Box on October 10, 2007.

The Portal series, which takes place in the same universe as the Half-Life games, is a series of puzzle games developed by Valve. Episode One received a generally positive critical reaction, although the short length was a common point of criticism. It introduced several graphical effects, including new lighting features and more advanced facial animation. The player controls Freeman as he and Alyx escape City 17 before a dark energy reactor core destroys it. Įpisode One was released on June 1, 2006. According to Newell, where Half-Life saw the G-Man transform Freeman into his tool, and Half-Life 2 saw Freeman being used by G-Man, the episodes would see G-Man lose control. Valve's president, Gabe Newell, said the approach would allow Valve to release products more quickly after the six-year Half-Life 2 development, and that he considered the trilogy the equivalent of Half-Life 3.
In May 2006, Valve announced a trilogy of episodic games that would continue the Half-Life 2 story, with the final episode planned for release by Christmas 2007. Set 5 years before Half-Life 2, players control Freeman's ally Alyx Vance in her quest to defeat the alien Combine. In 2020, after years of speculation, Valve released its flagship virtual reality game, Half-Life: Alyx. Over the following decade, numerous Half-Life games were canceled, including Episode Three, a version of Half-Life 3, and games developed by Junction Point Studios and Arkane Studios. The first game in the Portal series, set in the same universe as Half-Life, was released in 2007. It was followed by the extra level Lost Coast (2005) and the episodic sequels Episode One (2006) and Episode Two (2007).
In 2004, Valve released Half-Life 2 to further success, with a new setting and characters and physics-based gameplay. Half-Life was followed by the expansions Opposing Force (1999), Blue Shift (2001) and Decay (2001), developed by Gearbox Software. The innovative scripted sequences were influential on the FPS genre, and the game inspired numerous community-developed mods, including the multiplayer games Counter-Strike and Day of Defeat. Players control Gordon Freeman, a scientist who must survive an alien invasion.
