It’s been over 6 years since Team Fortress 2 received a major update. But don’t worry, Valve hasn’t forgotten about its popular class-based FPS franchise. In fact, the Half-Life creators have approved a new TF2 DLC for Funko Fusion aka that Funko Pop-themed video game coming out later this year.

Packing more punch than the sandvich, this all-action add on is kind of a big deal! Relive some of your favourite Team Fortress 2 moments in Funko Fusion with these characters.


Valve’s answer to Team Fortress 2 ban appeals amid its aimbot purge is a thunderous “no.” After players started a petition demanding Valve act against the bot crisis, the Steam maker is finally taking action against these accounts. This includes a new TF2 support page for anyone banned in the game, with the answer to every question a simple, and savage, denial.

The new support page “Team Fortress 2 – I’ve been game banned” highlights Valve’s approach. There’s absolutely no leniency to be found for bot hosters and cheaters, as the answer to almost every question about appeals is a colossal “no.”

Players can’t appeal their ban, move TF2 items to a different account, or even be told why they were banned in the first place. Whether a player is banned for cheating, manipulating their rank, botting, or interfering with servers, Steam support does not change its ruling.
