For over twenty years, Steam has delivered high-quality entertainment to enthusiasts across America (and the world!)

It’s like a highly-pressurized party: the spicy love-child of water and fire. In fact, the electricity powering your computer right now is basically made of Steam! Probably. Unless you live near a dam, like a hippie.

Pop quiz: What else is basically made of Steam?

Open Fortress.

Steam release FAQ:

Q: Is Open Fortress coming to Steam?

A: Yes. Cool! But not literally cool, since Steam is very, very hot. Literally, figuratively hot. That’s an oxymoron, but it kind of makes sense. Just like ‘new age of retro’, which is what Open Fortress is entering now: the far-flung future of 1979.

Q: Okay, great, but where's the actual FAQ?

A: Right here. FAQ to your heart's content: https://openfortress.fun/faq

Ever since Valve announced the TF2 SDK, we’ve been hard at work porting the mod in preparation for the Steam release. You can think of it as ‘Open Fortress 1.0’ - a stable foundation for the awesome updates ahead. Expect all-original assets, a funky new UI, and a few balance adjustments under the hood to make things play better than ever. Coming to Steam means a refined look and feel for the Open Fortress experience, setting the stage for the Mercenary to really show his stuff.

You can still play the game through our website, but for now, it’s still in ‘alpha’. That’ll make you an alpha gamer - or, rather, it means you were an alpha gamer the whole time. Just keep in mind that, more than ever, the alpha doesn’t quite represent what’s to come.

The point is, you should get psyched! We sure did - so much that we’re Get Psyched Games, now. See how that works? It’s clever, like a title drop at the end of the announcement.
