The Jungle Inferno Update was a major update for Team Fortress 2 that spanned throughout 4 days, starting on October 16th, 2017 and finally releasing on October 20th, 2017 after a 1-day delay. It introduced 5 new weapons, 5 new community-made maps, 1 new Valve-made map, 7 new taunts, 1 new kill taunt, 49 new cosmetics (though 4 all-class items are currently unreleased), and many rebalances for existing weapons as well as the Pyro class. It also introduced an overhaul to the contract system with the ConTracker, and introduced War Paint in place of weapon skins.

- Day 4 was the final day, accompanied by a blog post with the complete patch notes and a release date of 1 day away.

Day 2
Day 2 revealed the Jungle Inferno Campaign and War Paint cases that replaced campaign weapon drops and weapon cases, 2 new cosmetic cases, and the new campaign system. This campaign involves 36 new contracts that can be completed in co-op. Completion of the contracts earns either a campaign-specific item or "Blood Money", which can be used to buy War Paints and cases.
Campaign
The Jungle Inferno Campaign required the purchase of a Jungle Inferno Campaign Pass. The ConTracker PDA was also introduced, which allows customized contract progression and access to the Mercenary Park Gift Shop. Friendly-Fire is a new feature accompanied by the campaign and the party system, which allows players to play with/against their friends and help each other in completing contracts if they are on the same Valve server with them.

Update Delay
On the expected day for the update's release, Day 4, a blog post gave notice of a delay of one day for the update in order for the TF team to do additional stress testing.
Trivia
- Several new weapons were teased in the days prior to their reveal:
- At the bottom of the Day 1 Update Page, there is a Gas Passer lying on the ground, and in the background, the Pyro can be seen flying with the Thermal Thruster.
- On the Day 2 Update Page, in the pile of weapons shown that War Paint can be applied to, there is a Dragon's Fury in the background. Also, in the lineup of the team showing off new cosmetics, the Pyro is seen holding the Dragon's Fury and the Heavy is holding the Second Banana.
- At the bottom of the Day 2 Update Page, Saxton Hale is seen holding a ConTracker. On the screen, there are two names. One says "Mercenary Park", and the other says "Pyroland". It was later revealed that through the "Pyroland" option, players would be able to earn all of the four new Pyro weapons and the Heavy weapon via completing six free contracts. Additionally, on Saxton Hale's shoulder, a parrot can be seen. Three red lasers are shining near the parrot's head. Moving the cursor near the parrot causes its head to explode, leaving a comical bone sticking out, some blood on Hale's shoulder, and feathers floating in the air. The triple laser sight is a reference to the Predator film series, as the eponymous alien hunters use a similar sight to aim their Plasmacasters. The first Predator movie involves people being hunted in a jungle. Using inspect element on the website shows the image's name as "parroter".
