Development

Fortress Forever was in development for more than a year before the Half-Life 2 SDK was released, according to a developer team member.[2][3] Fortress Forever was originally released as a modification for Half-Life 2 on September 13, 2007.[1] The game is now freely available to all who have a Steam account. On May 24, 2013, Fortress Forever updated to version 2.46.[4][5] On October 16, 2013, Fortress Forever was greenlit for Steam.[6] Version 2.46 was the last version of Fortress Forever released before the game and future updates were released on Steam. On March 27, 2015, Fortress Forever was released on Steam.[7] On June 5, 2016, the latest version, version 2.6 was released.[8]
