There’s no shortage of speculation when it comes to all things Valve. Tyler McVicker, YouTuber and one of the leading voices dedicated to deciphering Valve’s various internal developments, however now reports that not only is the company’s long-awaited standalone VR headset still coming, but it may arrive alongside its own Half-Life game.

Valve’s much hyped standalone, known only as ‘Deckard’, is “still very much in production,” McVicker maintains, saying that according to his sources that Valve “still intend[s] on shipping this piece of hardware.

Why must the market go standalone? Mobile processing power won't be even close to good enough for a long time, I would like some more high-end tethered options such as the Bigscreen Beyond

wireless tethering with some stand alone capability is the sweet spot in my opinion, would be nice to be able to use it on the go but with full fidelity tethered to a gaming PC at home.

I was about to write this exact comment.

Even if I hardly ever play standalone, it's nice to have the option.

Also the ability to wander around an arbitrarily large play space is nice too.
