![Microsoft is NOT Buying Valve, Gabe Newell Confirms to Fan](https://www.thetechgame.com/images/news/article/9085899d0d.jpg)
At least that part of those rumors was false, however- none other than Gabe Newell, head of Valve, has confirmed so. Responding to a fan via email (which is something that he is known to do quite a bit), Newell said that he is “not aware” of Valve being bought out by Microsoft. So, that ends that.
Valve fans can therefore rest easy- the company is in no danger of going corporate any time soon. Of course, this also means that said fans’ wait for Valve to actually put out a meaningful game continues. Half Life 3 will never happen.
