BudgetEstimated

Estimated US$29–75 million total, including development and marketing; not officially disclosed by Valve

RevenueEstimated

Over 2 million copies sold as of December 2024; Valve does not officially disclose sales figures

en.wikipedia.org

Valve is privately held and has never officially disclosed Half-Life: Alyx's budget, unit sales, or revenue. The 'over 2 million copies' figure (as of December 2024) is press-aggregated rather than an official Valve release. The budget range is a single-source journalist estimate (New World Notes, 2020). Notably, the game drove Valve Index VR headset adoption: Valve sold ~103,000 Index units in Q4 2019 after the announcement, the headset sold out worldwide, and Alyx was free to Index owners.
