After confirming several new things for Team Fortress 2, from the Mann vs. Machine Mecha event, to the addition of the new Adult Swim-themed items, Valve has actually updated the game, alongside its Source Engine, on the PC platform, via Steam.

Team Fortress 2 is one of the most popular titles from Valve, largely because of its addictive nature and the constant updates that the studio has released for the online shooter.

After the huge addition of the Mann vs. Machine cooperative mode, the studio has now released a brand new patch for Team Fortress 2 and its own Source Engine, which not only fixes lots of issues, but also adds several new things that have already been announced.

From the Mecha Engine event, which brings new enemies and a huge new map, to the new items based on Adult Swim, many things are included in the update, so check out its full list of changes below, via Steam.
