Earlier, Valve announced the development of Counter-Strike 2, with the game's release planned for the summer of 2023. However, at the current moment, the game is still in closed beta testing. It is assumed that this may be related to different definitions of seasons in the USA and Europe. If this is the case, the new version of the shooter from Valve should be released in the next few days.
