“
After setting a new standard for Lack of Class in an FPS with the addition of Jarate (the jar-based Karate), we've raised the bar on lowering the tone even further with the first ever Classless Update!
— Robin Walker
 ”

The Classless Update was released in the August 13, 2009 Patch.

Announcements

The Classless Update page officially began on August 11, 2009, as announced on the TF2 Official Website with the post "This one's ours now!". The update was released to all players on August 13.
