The latest Counter-Strike 2 update launches the Elimination Stage Pick'Em Challenge for the Copenhagen Major. It also fixes a bug where the C4 could fall through the floor.

Counter-Strike 2 received an update centered around the Copenhagen 2024 Major. The patch activates the Elimination Stage Pick'Em Challenge and adds several adjustments to the Major Hub.

Copenhagen Pick'Em and Hub Updates

The Elimination Stage Pick'Em Challenge is live with 13 qualified teams, and players can update their picks until the opening matches begin. A reminder prompt now informs Copenhagen 2024 Viewer Pass owners that they must activate their pass to qualify for coin challenges. Valve added a checkbox to display final Swiss standings in the Major Hub alongside a preview feature for souvenir packages.

Gameplay and Menu Fixes

The update resolves an issue where the C4 bomb could fall straight through the floor if a player dropped it while planting. In the menus, a confirmation popup now appears before launching Training Day from the Play menu, preventing accidental clicks.

Why this patch matters

This update prepares the client for the next phase of the Copenhagen Major while smoothing out hub interface friction and stopping bomb physics bugs.
