The development team at Valve announces that the Saxxy Awards are returning for the third year in a row, allowing all talented creators to use the Source Filmmaker and assets from Team Fortress 2 to create their own movies that will then be judged by the company.

VG247 says that submissions can be delivered starting at 4 PM on November 4 Pacific Standard Time for a one-week period.

Valve has delivered some changes to the categories, eliminating the Replay category and adding a new Short movie selection.

Last year, the winners of the Saxxy Awards were announced in the run-up to the Video Game Awards show.

The content, complete with significant prizes, is designed to keep the community around Team Fortress 2 and other Valve titles engaged in the long term and offer a way to express their creativity.
