Valve's promised major summer update for 2007 game Team Fortress 2 is here, and it's adding 14 new maps, a new game mode, new taunts, effects, and a whole heap of bug fixes and quality-of-life update.

While most of what's new to the game is community-made content that's been given an official released, it's still a major update for a game that's over 15 years old. The new content will come into play as part of a summer event that will run through to September 15.

Excitingly, the fan-made Versus Saxton Hale mode has been made official as part of the update, with four new maps released for the asymmetrical multiplayer mode. The mode is a variant on Arena mode where a whole team of players take on one overpowered player who takes the role of Saxton Hale, or another powerful boss.

The other community-created content released with this update includes 10 maps, 25 new cosmetic items, 6 new taunts, 20 unusual effects, and 10 new war paints.

The Valve team has also fixed a number of bugs and exploits as part of the update, as well as adding general «security and stability improvements. You can check out the full patch notes for the summer update below.
