The CSGO player count has been broken yet again (again), as the Valve FPS game's concurrent players soar in just one day by quite a wide margin. This latest leap is so big that the official Counter-Strike 2 release date coming.
As Counter-Strike 2 reveal sending the numbers up.
Since early this year CSGO has been steadily sitting at around 1.5 million concurrent players but, just today, that number has skyrocketed to 1,818,773, an increase of around 300,000 players in 24 hours (or an increase of a whopping 20%).
To put it bluntly, this is unreal. Even the official CS2 (formerly CSGO) Twitter is shocked, posting a gif of wrestling legend Macho Man Randy Savage in a crown in response to a tweet from aquaismissing with the alt text "All of you, together playing Counter-Strike."
It's not just players either, as CSGO cases have set a new record with 27% more openings, a more pricey market, and massive growth for the shooter's weapon skins.
While player counts surge, get ahead of the game with the Counter-Strike 2 is noob friendly if you're just getting into the competitive shooter as well.
