Team Fortress 2 going Free to Play


Valve developer Robin Walker has revealed that the hugely popular team-based shooter Team Fortress 2 will be relaunching as a free-to-play game. He has assured gamers that Team Fortress 2 would only be monetised by microtransaction payments and that no advertising model will be pursued.

He also stated that no premium subscription model will be used. No cynical “pay-to-win” options will be implemented, he assured. In-game items will now be the only way Valve gets any money from Team Fortress 2. But again, Walker assured that the number of gratis in-game items – which are released on a daily basis – would not dry up.

In other TF2 news, the trailer for 'Meet the Medic' has also become available.
