Operation Titanium Tank returns for a limited time! Complete all 6 missions on this classic advanced-difficulty community Mann vs Machine tour and win an in-game tank medal! Official servers are available in North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia. Click here to start playing!




This time around, donations are open for IRONAID, a COVID-19 support fund by the IRONMAN Foundation. Hordes of deadly robots are bad enough, but a pandemic on top of that? Absolutely unacceptable. Each contribution towards the IRONAID fund means our soldiers on the front lines can worry less about the coronavirus and more about the hordes of deadly robots!




Donations of $5 USD will earn an in-game golden heart donor medal, $10 will earn an in-game rainbow heart donor medal, and $15 will earn both donor medals! Click here for instructions on how to donate. Item donations can be made on our ScrapTF page.




Have fun, but don't delay, because this tour will end on September 30th, 2020!



TF2 Fight Songs Album is Getting a Free Expansion Pack

People always talk about what a great musician Mozart was. But you know who never updated any of his albums with free music? Go ahead, guess.


Did you guess Team Fortress 2? Bzzt. Wrong. Because we're adding three new numbers from our Jungle Inferno update to the TF2 Fight Songs album. If you bought Fight Songs on Steam, you don't have to do anything, because the songs have automatically been added to your account.


If you bought Fight Songs somewhere else, or even if you didn’t buy Fight Songs, or even if you stole Fight Songs, or did any of those things and then later sold Fight Songs, or bought a recording studio out of spite and recorded a competing version of Fight Songs… look, you’re not on trial here. Download all three songs for free and we’ll forget the whole thing ever happened.


Anyway, did you guess yet? Did you guess Mozart? Because that’s what we guessed, too. Except we looked him up while you were reading and it turns out he’s famous for updating all his hit albums. But you know what he hasn’t done yet? Make his sheet music and Sibelius files available for free, like we’re doing literally right now: Sheet music. Sibelius files. Checkmate, Mozart. See you in hell.
