Custom Maps Return to Counter-Strike 2 with Maps Workshop Revamp
03.11.2023 - 15:17 / mmorpg.com
Over a month since the game's release, community maps finally return to Counter-Strike with the launch of the newly revamped maps workshop.
Custom maps are the backbone of many games in the shooter genre, but especially for Valve games such as the venerable Counter-Strike franchise and Team Fortress 2. Fans were understandly frustrated when Counter-Strike 2 launched without map workshop support on September 27, but with this latest update the deluge of community creations should be upon us soon.
While the maps workshop revamp is certainly the marquee feature of the November 2 update, the patch included a number of other desperately needed bug fixes that are sure to be appreciated by fans of the game.
