According to a recent tweet from John Lowrie, the voice of the Sniper in Team Fortress 2; Valve is working on a new project that requires his talents.
Valve has taken a hands-off approach to game development in recent years, with their latest big project being Half-Life: Alyx. But before that it’s been DOTA 2 and its spin-offs like Artifact and DOTA Underlords.
Ok, you have to promise to stay calm. Thought this pic would be more neutral 😃 Back out at Valve today and, like all voice actors, can’t say anything specific. You’re the greatest fans in the world❤️❤️❤️ thanks for hanging with me 👍 pic.twitter.com/3Smf1idfM0

It’s unclear what exactly Lowrie is working on at Valve, especially since the company has used voice actors they’re familiar with for different projects. For example Ellen McLain (who’s married to Lowrie) is both the voice of GLaDOS from the Portal franchise and the Announcer from Team Fortress 2.
