Valve has revealed the first unlock of the Sniper class in the upcoming update. The new unlock will be a bow and arrow, which not only charges to full power in a mere second, it also sticks enemies to the wall, as Valve puts it:

“Any experienced sniper will tell you how irritating it is when your targets keep moving around,” writes Valve. “The question is how to stop these cheaters from wind-sprinting around like they own the place. And the answer is to pin them to a wall. How? With arrows!”

The Sniper update will include three unlocks, like all previous updates, and will also come with new maps for the multiplayer shooter.
