Rumors of Source 2 brought attention to the game
CS:GO started setting records at the end of January, but each record differed by several thousand. But today, an abnormal situation occurred: more than 1,400,000 players were online simultaneously. And the main reason is the rumors about Source 2.
Right now, the first weekend is coming after the appearance of many rumors about the new version of the game. Several sources reported that the project, under the working name of Counter-Strike 2, will be released in beta status this month, which raised a huge amount of noise in the community. It brought back a huge number of users to the game.
At the same time, Valve didn't make any official announcements. Several data miners and journalist Richard Lewis were able to attract such attention. What will happen when Source 2 comes out?
The latest news about Source 2
This week there were a lot of rumors about the new version of CS. First, a new application was added to the CS:GO database, which still has no name and purpose in the current game client. Also, data miners noticed that it has already been updated twice this week.
In addition, Richard Lewis spoke with sources in the game development field and wrote an article in which he told about everything he knows about Counter-Strike 2. He also mentioned that several players have already tested the new version of the game at Valve's office. This rumor received an unexpected confirmation - the behavior of Finn Karrigan Andersen during questions about Source 2 speaks for itself.
