With CS2, Almost every aspect of CS has been revamped across the board: visuals, presentation, gameplay, mechanics, and connectivity, all while still maintaining that familiar Counter-Strike feel that CS:GO players are used to.

Counter-Strike 2 takes gameplay visuals to the next level. Visual effects across the board have received a makeover. With the introduction of Source 2 lighting and particle systems, everything from water to explosions, fire, smoke, muzzle flashes, bullet tracers, and impact effects looks and behaves in a new and immersive way.

The revamped visuals also prioritizes readability and accessibility, and the menus and UI has also received a complete makeover. Smoke now behaves naturally, seeping through doorways, windows, stairs, and corridors, creating a more authentic gaming experience.
