Among other things, the team has also released an additional hotfix that fixes some crashes, including a serious bug with the OS X version of the title, and informs us that the work on the DLC has concluded. Unfortunately they’re still waiting for a release date from Valve, so we’ll have to wait a little longer to get our hands on it.
