As a part of our continuing efforts to support the MOD community, we
will begin hosting selected MODs directly on Steam starting next week.
The first five MODs to ship on steam will be Age of Chivalry,
D.I.P.R.I.P., Insurgency, Synergy, and Zombie Panic. As always, owners
of <a href="steam://openurl/http://store.steampowered.com/search/?category2=16";
target="_blank">any Source game</a> will be able to download and play
all of these MODs for free.<br>
<br>
Once installed, these MODs will appear in your "My Games" list and
will receive automatic updates just like other games on Steam. Also,
these MODs now take advantage of Steamworks, which provides stat
tracking and tighter integration with the Steam community.<br>

<br>
We're excited to see MOD developers get wider recognition for the hard
work they have done, and we hope to support more MOD teams in the
future. Watch for the official release next week!
