Remember how last year we'd play Team Fortress 2? A doggone damn lot? Team Fortress 2 is our most popular game, pardner, and it's free to play! We're playing Team Fortress 2 every two weeks (or whenever we can get started again). The event? We're callin' it Fortress Fridays! No matter your skill level, come join us every Friday from 7 PM to 9PM EDT! (That's Friday 11 PM to 1 AM GMT for those outside the US.)

Our community world has thousands of hours of contributions and keeps growing! Why not come join in the fun and play some games with your fellow PokéCommunity members?
