Hello, I am looking at upgrading my Mac mini to 10.15 (MacOS Catalina) but am aware that TF2 as well as parts of Steam may lack 64-bit support on MacOS (at least as of a few months ago). I am unsure if that has changed since. I wanted to find out if anyone has attempted to update to MacOS Catalina and run TF2 with any success, or if anyone is aware of a workaround?

The Mac Update was the first major update for Team Fortress 2 that included support for a platform other than Windows. The patch was released on June 10, 2010 Patch, and its main feature was providing the ability to play the game on Mac OS X machines. The update also included a Training mode and its associated map Target, added help sections to the Loadout, Backpack and Crafting screens, and also completely overhauled the main menu. The patch also added the ability to play King of the Hill maps and Dustbowl in Offline Practice Mode against bots, and made a number of other minor changes. After the update went live, the Mac Update trailer was released as was a non-canon Apple-themed comic strip featuring the Soldier, Scout, Heavy and Saxton Hale.
The release of the Mac Update also offered players the opportunity to acquire a new Cosmetic item, the Earbuds. The Earbuds were originally awarded to players who launched Team Fortress 2 on a Mac between June 10, 2010 and June 14, 2010, however the offer was later extended to August 16.[1] The Earbuds were only the second promotional item to be included in Team Fortress 2, and were the first promotional item to be released that was not directly related to Valve or any of their products.

People always talk about what a great musician Mozart was. But you know who never updated any of his albums with free music? Go ahead, guess.
Did you guess Team Fortress 2? Bzzt. Wrong. Because we're adding three new numbers from our Jungle Inferno update to the TF2 Fight Songs album. If you bought Fight Songs on Steam, you don't have to do anything, because the songs have automatically been added to your account.
If you bought Fight Songs somewhere else, or even if you didn’t buy Fight Songs, or even if you stole Fight Songs, or did any of those things and then later sold Fight Songs, or bought a recording studio out of spite and recorded a competing version of Fight Songs… look, you’re not on trial here. Download all three songs for free and we’ll forget the whole thing ever happened.
Anyway, did you guess yet? Did you guess Mozart? Because that’s what we guessed, too. Except we looked him up while you were reading and it turns out he’s famous for updating all his hit albums. But you know what he hasn’t done yet? Make his sheet music and Sibelius files available for free, like we’re doing literally right now: Sheet music. Sibelius files. Checkmate, Mozart. See you in hell.
A Hell of a Campaign

Rick May, the inimitable voice of the Soldier for thirteen years, many shorts and countless updates, passed away this April at age 79. We were lucky enough to work with Rick many times in the studio over the past decade. A quick-witted and kind-hearted collaborator, Rick endowed the character with a trademark bellow and bootfulls of idiotic charm. The Soldier wouldn’t be the Soldier without him.
We are honoring Rick during the month of May with an in-game Soldier statue that will play some of Rick’s signature lines. He will be missed by the Team Fortress dev team and community, and remembered for the indelible character he helped bring to life for so many years.

Update on The Crate Depression of 2019
August 2, 2019 - TF2 Team
On the evening of Thursday, July 25th, a bug was introduced that allowed some older crates to grant an Unusual hat on every opening. We fixed the bug the following morning and decided to trade-lock the hats from the bugged crates while we evaluated the situation.
Over the past week, we have been discussing ways to address this situation with the goal of minimizing the impact on the TF2 community as a whole, while preserving the experience of customers who had simply opened a crate, made a trade, or purchased from the market on the 25th, unaware that a bug produced their item.
During our investigation we discovered that a small number of accounts acquired these hats and a smaller portion of those accounts acquired an exceedingly large number of them. Based on this, we've decided that if you currently own one of these Unusual hats, the first one added to your account will be made tradable. Any other Unusual you have received due to the bug will remain permanently trade locked. If you decide that you would rather not have these trade-locked hats on your account, you may instead elect a full refund on any number of them.
Team Fortress 2 Download For Mac
The number of Unusual items being made tradable represents about one month of the regular Unusual drop rate.
A few of you were concerned that you had done something wrong by opening a bugged crate, and proceeded to delete your hats. While we appreciate the concern, you didn't do anything wrong, so hats from bugged crates deleted before the tradable date will be restored to your accounts with the same restrictions described above.
Item tradability, restoration, and the refund support page will be made available in about a week's time. Refunds will be the full price paid for any hats, crates or keys bought on the Steam Community Market or Mann Co. store. We will post an update when that exact date becomes available.
We apologize for the inconvenience of this incident, and we’ve added safeguards to prevent incidents like this in the future.
Update Aug 16: One unusual per account has been made tradable as described above. Affected users should visit the following support page for information about affected items and to submit refund requests if eligible: https://help.steampowered.com/en/wizard/HelpWithItemBug
