Players logging into CS2 today were greeted by a new soundtrack—harsh and electronic, the same sort of tunes we’ve heard from the development videos. But there were also some surprising goodies for those with a more nostalgic tilt out there: a commemorative badge and a CS:GO music kit to reminisce on the good times in Global Offensive.
After years of development and blowing past its own summer 2023 deadline, Valve finally released the long-awaited latest entry in the Counter-Strike franchise on Sept. 27. CS2 completely supersedes Global Offensive, and some in the community were sad to note that the previous entry will be entirely replaced by the new one on the storefront. Perhaps to placate people or to commemorate the moment in its own way, Valve offered some goodies to former CS:GO players in the new game in the form of a badge and a music kit.
