Counter-Strike 2 May 1, 2024 Update Adds Workshop Arms Race Support

Counter-Strike 2 receives a minor update introducing Arms Race support for workshop map submissions alongside interface and demo playback fixes.

A brief update for Counter-Strike 2 focuses on workshop capabilities and quality-of-life adjustments for demo viewers and end-of-match screens.

Gameplay and Workshop Additions

Developers added the Arms Race game mode for workshop map submissions, allowing creators to target the specific mode with custom content.

Interface and Demo Fixes

A bug causing the game to stop taking keyboard input during the end-of-match map vote is resolved. UI characters no longer appear with default gloves equipped. Demo playback now pauses at the end of a recording instead of returning automatically to the main menu, alongside minor playback optimizations.

Why this patch matters

This minor patch clears up input bugs during voting and opens Arms Race up to workshop map creators.
