And it is in this context that Valve launched this Wednesday September 27 Counter-Strike 2an evolved version of CS:GO which replaces the latter’s client but allows you to keep your items.
It includes all the content of the last version, with identical or reworked maps all using the engine Source 2 for visual improvements, an editor map pushed, smoke effects with dynamic behavior, or even a reduction in the time of inputssimple but effective new features promised last March. Counter-Strike 2 is therefore available in free-to-play on Steamand in addition to the free download, the most invested can pay for a status Prime at €14.29 to obtain cosmetic bonuses.
Counter-Strike is the competitive experience par excellence that has brought together millions of people for over twenty years. The time has come to write the next chapter in Counter-Strike history. Make way for Counter-Strike 2.
With Counter-Strike 2, the free improvement to CS:GO, Counter-Strike makes the biggest technical leap in its entire history. Thanks to the Source 2 engine, Counter-Strike 2 benefits from realistic physics rendering, cutting-edge network architecture and new Workshop tools for the community.
