Can you play in Half
Demi-life: Alyx is the last entry of the demi life series, and was made by valve as a VR experience. You may wonder if it is possible to play demi-life: alyx without VR, and unfortunately we have bad news for you.
Demi-life: Alyx can not be played without headphone VR, and it does not come with an option to discover the game in another way. It's a VR, end-to-end experience.
It is also incredibly unlikely that a version of the game is published for a non-VR configuration. While playing through the game for our review, it became incredibly obvious that alyx had been built purely with VR in mind, to offer the best possible experience to players.
This means that there are some systems and mechanisms in place that would not result very well with a non-VR experience.
If you plan to buy a helmet to play game and start your VR game adventures, there are a number of helmets available that will support the game.
- The valve index
- HTC Vive Pro
- HTC Cosmos Elite
- HTC Cosmos
- Oculus Quest (with USB-C cable)
- Oculus Rift
- Windows Mixed Reality
Each of these helmets should offer you great experience, as long as you meet the minimum requirements of the games, listed below:
- OS: Windows 10
- PROCESSOR: CORE I5-7500 / RYZEN 5 1600
- Memory: 12 GB of RAM
- Graphic: GTX 1060 / RX 580 - 6 GB of VRAM
So, although you can not play Alyx on a non-VR configuration, it's the right time to jump in VR if you have been on the fence.
