Valve will switch CS:GO to the new Source 2 engine in the first quarter of 2023, according to developer Aquarius. This is not the first prediction that mentions significant alterations for CS:GO.

 


To conclude the year on a positive note, here is something intriguing. According to a reliable source, CS:GO will switch to Source 2 in the first quarter of 2023. The insider also confirms that owing to intensive testing, some of which we conducted this summer, the CS:GO beta has been buried. Naturally, all of this is just conjecture, and with Valve, nothing is ever certain.

 

However, fresh information should be viewed with suspicion considering the amount of previous "insiders." There is undoubtedly work being done to switch to Source 2. However, you must remember the small number of individuals working on CS:GO. Since rumors originate from nothing, you should not hold onto unrealistic expectations.

 

Earlier, HLTV editorial staff decided to keep in mind CS:GO eSports organizations that overlooked wins in important tournaments. The Swedish team Ninjas in Pajamas, who triumphed in the Intel Extreme Masters XII - Oakland 1,864 days ago, is now the “leader.” The club has not participated in significant competitions with the S-TIER characteristic for more than five years. Despite a few subsequent successes, Ninjas in Pajamas nevertheless follows the path of a losing squad.
