Half-Life Deathmatch: Source is a Source engine port of the multiplayer portion of Half-Life included with Half-Life: Source. It was first announced in June 2005 to be released "In the coming weeks",[2] but was eventually delayed and only became available on May 1, 2006.[1] Along with Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, it was bundled with Half-Life 2: Episode One for some time after its release.[3]

As a port, the game possesses several differences with the original multiplayer component of Half-Life, such as the .357 Magnum lacking the zoom feature. Many of the maps also feature changes to existing areas for balancing purposes and to incorporate extra details, many taking advantage of Source's new engine capabilities. The game is also oddly missing the map Gasworks.

While Valve unlisted Half-Life: Source from the Steam Store on November 17, 2023 as part of the 25th Anniversary Update for the original game,[4] Half-Life Deathmatch: Source has remained visible and searchable on the store.
