According to online rumors, Valve has started work on a mystery project with the code name Tf. The latest Deadlock update revealed this new code name, similar to how people found HLX before. Tf exists as a preset inside the Source 2 game engine with special tools for developers. Each game needs different markers to separate projects inside the system. The code name might suggest a link to Team Fortress, but experts doubt it relates to updating Team Fortress 2.
Valve created this project more recently than both Deadlock and Counter-Strike 2. The game likely remains in early stages, comparable to the first Deadlock footage ever seen. Fans will need patience as details about Tf may take time to emerge. Another Valve project called HLX may arrive much sooner than Tf, with a possible summer reveal. Many people believe HLX might be Half-Life 3 based on current testing. Players can complete HLX from start to finish already, which suggests a winter release date.
