Reporting for Active Duty
Cache has officially arrived, and replaces Overpass in the active duty map pool. Put your hard-earned strats to the test and rise through the Premier ranks in CS2's newest battlefield.
Get out of there, it's gonna blow!
Season 5 has arrived with some explosive changes to CS2--bomb damage has been completely reworked.
Now, when the bomb detonates, an explosive wave of destruction will flow from the bombsite through the map. As before, if you're too close to the bomb when it explodes, you're toast--but the shockwave dissipates around corners and doesn't go through walls, so at a certain distance you can use your wits to survive. Or, if you're not confident your wits are up to the task, check your health bar which will flash a preview of how well you'll fare after the blast.
Answering the Call
We sent out a call to arms recently for some new weapon and sticker collections, and the community answered! Head to the Armory, where you'll find two new weapon collections, Arabesque and Spy Tech.
Two new sticker collections, Fruits & Vegetables and Auto Racing, have also been added to the Armory.
Community Maps
Speaking of the CS community, there are some new maps to try. Boulder, Fachwerk, and Shelter have been added to Competitive, Casual, and Deathmatch modes, while Debris and El Dorado are now available in Wingman.
...And More
We've fixed some bugs, tweaked some maps, and scoreboard performance has been improved so you can check your stats as often as you like.
