CSGO Matchmaking Servers and the CS Network experienced a global outage on September 28, 2023, at 1 AM IST, leaving fans and players in anticipation and speculation. This unexpected downtime has sparked rumors and heightened excitement among the gaming community, with many believing that this could be the precursor to the much-anticipated release of Counter-Strike 2 from its beta version.
The sudden unavailability of servers was not limited to a specific region; instead, it was a global phenomenon, affecting every single Valve server region, with the exception of EU North. This widespread disruption has left both games unplayable online, presumably due to Valve making the final configurations to roll out a substantial update for CS2.
Is Counter-Strike 2 Coming Soon?
The global downtime has fueled speculations and eagerness among fans who are ardently waiting for the release of Counter-Strike 2. This speculation is not unfounded, as the timing of the server outage coincides with the period when Counter-Strike 2 is expected to exit its beta phase and be unveiled to the public.
The server outage has also had a significant impact on the eSports scene, particularly on the ongoing ESL Pro League, causing unforeseen delays. Reports suggest that ESL was considering the possibility of switching to CS2 mid-tournament, polling teams for their opinions. The way other tournament organizers will adapt to the new version of the game in their upcoming events remains uncertain.
