‘Vertigo vibes’: VALORANT players draw comparisons between new map Abyss and a Counter-Strike classic

Riot Games dropped a full cinematic trailer for the upcoming VALORANT map Abyss, showcasing several spots where players could fall off to their doom—and fans can’t help but compare it to one of Counter-Strike’s classic playgrounds.

Riot revealed the new map on June 8, with the video starring many agents navigating through what seems to be a garden situated on top of an endless pit, which makes sense considering its name. The never-ending pit design is similar to Vertigo, a classic Counter-Strike map introduced in the franchise back in 2012 that lets you play on two of the highest floors in an under-construction skyscraper. FPS fans quickly noticed the resemblance, wondering if they could fall off to their death in Abyss like in Vertigo.
