The much-anticipated Counter-Strike 2 is yet to be fully released, however, a fresh update has been presented Thursday night by Valve. In the release notes, the game developers announce that all the maps which are in the beta version are now available to be played.
20 new things to be excited for in CS2
But unfortunately, you will have to wait to play competitively on the nine selected maps as Valve only made them available to play in casual and deathmatch mode. The list of maps includes:
o Dust2
o Overpass
o Mirage
o Vertigo
o Nuke
o Ancient
o Anubis
o Office
o Italy
Bullet penetration gets a rework
Besides the release of Italy, Ancient, Dust2 and all the other maps, Valve has changed the way bullets penetrate through surfaces and bodies. ThourCS, a user on the social media X (formerly known as Twitter), explains the above-mentioned change in two videos down below.
