What is Half-Life 2: Deathmatch?

Fast movement, physics combat, classic maps.

About this game

Half-Life 2: Deathmatch (HL2DM) is a fast, physics-driven arena FPS built on the Source engine. Frag with classic weapons, master the Gravity Gun, and use the map itself as a weapon.

Matches are quick and expressive: control armor and batteries, out-position with movement, and turn crates, radiators, and sawblades into projectiles. Community servers mix Deathmatch, Team DM and wild modes like Deathrun, Jump, Co-op and CTF—pick your flavor and dive in.

Play Styles
at a Glance

  • Deathmatch — Free-for-all frags; control the map and avoid suicides.
  • Team Deathmatch — Combine vs Rebel teamwork with the same high tempo.
  • Community Modes — Deathrun, Puzzle, Co-op, Instagib, CTF, low-grav, GunGame, RPG variants, and more.

Servers mix rules, maps, and plugins—so HL2DM can feel like many games in one.
