After a fairly quiet period for Team Fortress 2 updates, Valve today announced the Uber Update, which it’s calling the “the biggest, most ambitious update in the history of Team Fortress 2.”
Coinciding with its launch will be the release of the long-awaited “Meet the Medic” video. The previous videos have been hilarious and did a fine job of introducing players to the personality of each of the game’s character classes. (And the sandvich.)
Included in the update itself is at least one class pack. The first of the bunch, Mobster Monday, was outlined today, but not before ample research was done. “To make sure everything was as accurate as possible, we went deep undercover at the most Italian place we could find, The Olive Garden,” the announcement reads. “We asked the Mafia about a million questions, none of which they understood, because our mouths were full of all the free breadsticks the Mafia gives you when you visit them (they’re not such bad guys).”
