Poker Night at the Inventory · published
After a seven-year gap when any merc who wanted to sport the looks of Poker Night at the Inventory was forced to shop their local surplus store, we’re pleased to announce that the game’s original Team Fortress 2 items are being reissued in collaboration with Mann Co. These items will be available to anyone who can look their enemy in the eye from across the table, lay down a mean hand of cards, and drain them of their worldly goods.
A lot of you have already hit us up with questions about how the Poker Night TF2 items are coming back. This post will answer the biggest ones we’ve heard, starting with what you can win and how you do it:
First up is the Reissued Dealer’s Visor, which can be worn in TF2 by the Heavy. This will only be available to people who buy the remastered Poker Night at the Inventory on Steam during the first two weeks after launch (March 5–19, 2026).
Next up is the Reissued Crimestomper Combo, a two-item bundle that you can earn in Poker Night at the Inventory by eliminating Max from any tournament where he’s put up his gun and badge as collateral. You’ll earn the Reissued Lugermorph, an aesthetic replacement for both the Scout and the Engineer’s pistol in TF2, as well as the Reissued License to Maim, a Freelance Police badge that can be worn by any class.
The Reissued Enthusiast’s Timepiece is usually transferred from friend to friend by an act of… well, of murder. But you can earn it by busting Tycho out of any tournament where he’s bid the watch. The Timepiece is a replacement invisibility watch for the Spy, with timer effects unique to this watch’s design.
The Heavy will sometimes buy in with his original minigun: a beautiful iron and mahogany piece created to be the pride and joy of all people of the motherland. Bust him out and it’ll belong to just one person: You. The Reissued Iron Curtain is an aesthetic replacement for the Heavy’s standard minigun in TF2.
If he’s having a moth-flutters-out-of-your-wallet-type day, Strong Bad might reluctantly part with a screen-used prop from his critically lauded and definitely real action movie series Dangeresque. Bust Strong Bad out of the tournament and you’ll earn the Reissued Dangeresque, Too?, a pair of glistening white plastic sunglasses that can be worn by the Demoman in TF2.
These items are classified as “Reissued” to differentiate them from the original Poker Night's items, issued in 2010, and to further differentiate them from the Vintage Lugermorph, which was first given away as part of a Sam & Max promotion before Poker Night even came out. Are the reissued items otherwise identical to Poker Night’s original items? Yes. Does this mean you could earn a second set of Poker Night items if you already won them in the original game fifteen years ago? Also yes, go nuts. And, just like the original Poker Night items, the Reissued items are not tradable or marketable (with the exception of the preorder Visor, which will be tradable just like the original).
Poker Night at the Inventory returns to Steam on March 5 as a fully remastered release, featuring updated art and lighting, more in-game unlockables than the original, and a cleaned-up codebase for a far smoother play experience. We'll tell you more about the remastering process around launch, but you can read a bit about it now on the game's Steam store page:
