Team Fortress 2 is a memorable experience for most PC gamers in an era that the variety of multiplayer titles were not as many as today. Hopefully, the game still has a huge community, and the developers still care about the game. Let's have a look at the latest TF2 Summer 2021 update.

Originally launched back in 2007, Team Fortress 2 is a source of inspiration for most of today's successful hero-based shooters.
