This just seems odd to me. I know it’s a competitive game, and most folks will be playing with a mouse and keyboard, but it feels weird for Valve to put out a brand new game (built from scratch, at that) and not plan for this.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Counter-Strike 2, the highly anticipated upgrade for CS:GO, has finally arrived.

After years of rumors, Valve announced CS2 in March and opened up a limited test.

The updated game is based on Valve’s Source 2 engine, giving the game a much-needed facelift, reworked audio, UI enhancements, and upgraded Community Workshop tools.

There’s even a new “tick-rate-independent gameplay” that Valve describes as a way for servers to “know the exact instant that motion starts, a shot is fired, or a ‘nade is thrown.”

You can download the 27GB CS2 for free from Steam, with its listing directly replacing the more than 10-year-old CS:GO.

All of the items you’ve collected in CS:GO will be available in CS2, while stock weapons will also get an enhanced look thanks to the Source 2 engine.
