Choose Your Characters Class

Not your average Class-based game. Team Fortress 2 gives you the opportunity to choose from an extensive list of classes each with their unique personalities and skills. Find the character that suits you the best and master the skills they possess. When you’re ready to put your money where your mouth is, jump into one of the competitive game modes TF2 has to offer.

• Pyro – Quite possibly insane,
  the Pyro is the ideal, close range unit that loves to burn everything in sight.
• Engineer – Where there’s a will, there’s a way. The engineer is a mechanically inclined individual who always finds a way to get the job done.
• Spy – A bit of an eccentric fellow, the spy is known for his unique cloaking watches that allow him to vanish into thin air.
• Heavy – Everybody needs a heavy on their team. If there is a weapon to wield he’s your guy. A bit of a brute to move around, but an absolute tank in battle.
• Sniper – If one shot kills are your thing, the sniper is the unit for you. A stone cold killer.
• Scout – The fastest moving unit on the face of the planet, with a mouth to match.
• Soldier – One of the most versatile units in the game. The soldier is able to combine many skills into one well-armed killing machine.
• Demoman – Another versatile member of the team, the demolition expert can deliver heavy damage to any enemy he faces.
• Medic – A classic support unit that will keep you in the fight no matter how much blood you lose.
