Smissmas 2014
| “ | Smissmas is almost upon us, and everybody here on the TF2 team's been busy getting gifts ready and standing as a group under the Valve mistletoe. The smooch count's currently at zero, but we're in this for the long haul. That's right, we'll stand here all damn week if there's some make-outs in it for us. Just try and get past us, DOTA2 team. You too, CS:GO.

The Smissmas 2014 update is a major content update for Team Fortress 2, released on December 22, 2014 Patch. It is a sequel of past community-made updates before, by Valve's request in coincidence of the Christmas Workshop submissions.
It added 28 new Winter-themed cosmetics and 7 new Festive weapons. As highlight of the update, a new beta game mode, Mannpower, was introduced. There have also been a lot of weapon reworks of previously released Demoman weapons, as well as two entirely new explosive weapons for the class, the Quickiebomb Launcher and the Iron Bomber. A new shotgun, the Panic Attack, has also been released for all shotgun-wearing classes.
