Levelord to Build Multiplayer Map for Half-Life: Opposing Force

Gearbox and Sierra have signed famed level designer Richard 'Levelord' Gray to build a multiplayer map for Half-Life: Opposing Force.

Richard Gray, the level designer better known as Levelord, is building a multiplayer map for Half-Life: Opposing Force, Sierra Studios and Gearbox Software announced today. Opposing Force is the first official expansion for Valve’s Half-Life, with Gearbox handling development.

Gray’s resume needs no padding: SiN at Ritual, Duke Nukem 3D at 3D Realms, the Quake mission pack Scourge of Armagon, and a pile of the most played multiplayer maps in the genre. Gearbox says he is the first announced member of a group of all-star designers joining the studio on contract to build new multiplayer content for the expansion. If the rest of that list lands at this level, Opposing Force deathmatch just became something to circle on the calendar.
