History[]

Half-Life 2: Episode Four[]

Captain Vance was still present in City 17 after Gordon Freeman assassinated Wallace Breen at the top of the citadel.

Captain Vance meets with Gordon Freeman and delivers the message, before mysteriously disappearing.

City 17 Street Special (2009)[]

Three-years after his supposed death, Captain Vance attempted to open a new portal to the Combine world which was shut off by Gordon and Alyx years prior. When his plans where again foiled by Gordon, who was now working as an agent for the government, Captain Vance crossed his DNA with that of a Gargantua, transforming him into a disgusting giant being.
