The Iron Curtain Minigun replacement and Dealer's Visor for the Heavy first shown by IGN.

On November 3rd 2010 it was revealed that Telltale's new game, Poker Night at the Inventory (featuring the Heavy Weapons Guy and several other characters from both Telltale and Penny Arcade) will unlock several different items for Team Fortress 2. The first of which is a pre-order item, the Dealer's Visor, a Heavy hat.

At other points during the game, special rounds will activate and allow players to obtain other Team Fortress 2 items, including:

• The Enthusiast's Timepiece, a wrist watch for the Spy (owned by Tycho)
• Dangeresque, Too?, a pair of sunglasses for the Demoman (owned by Strong Bad)
• License to Maim, a Freelance Police Badge for all classes (owned by Max)
• The Iron Curtain, a Minigun replacement for the Heavy (owned by the Heavy, naturally)
• The Lugermorph, a Pistol replacement that was previously only available to individuals who preordered "Sam & Max Season 3: The Devil's Playhouse" on Steam.

It is unknown whether or not these items will have special attributes, though it is likely that they will follow suit with other promotional items and simply be cosmetic items.

6th Polycount Pack and Unreleased Game Mode

Shortly after the release of the Polycount Pack, Valve announced that a sixth Pack (since revealed to belong to the Medic)[1] and a brand-new game mode were lined up to be released with the Polycount Pack, however they were both delayed due to the game mode being unfinished and the Pack having a direct correlation to the new game mode.[2]

ETF2L Highlander Community Challenge & ESL Medals

Eight medals are to be added to the game and given to participants and winners of the ETF2L Highlander Community Challenge and the ESL 6on6 League when the tournament ends. Currently, it has been confirmed that there are a first place, second place, third place, and participant medal that will become available.

New demo format

Robin Walker has discussed a new system for recording demos, where a player can request a recording from the server at the end of a life or round. The plan is for the format to be "More robust" so the demos will not become unplayable as easily as the current system when the game is updated.[3] Another goal is to allow people to easily share their videos on video sharing sites.[4]

Large Scale Performance Update

Robin Walker discussed with one of the community contributors in an email about a future performance update in the works, replacing all World and View models with the new C model type, and updating existing C models and the new C models with LODs. This update will significantly increase performance and allow for a greater range of community and Valve item replacements in later updates.
