All You Need to Know About Counter-Strike 2 Beta Access

The anticipation for the upcoming Counter-Strike 2 is growing as the developers have announced that the game will be released later this summer. Fans of the game are eagerly waiting to get their hands on the new version, and the developers have revealed that there will be a beta version released for testing. In this article, we'll explain all you need to know about CS2 beta access and the other essentials. 

How to Access the Beta

Getting access to the beta of CS2 depends on numerous factors decided by the developers such as recent activity on Valve's official servers, confidence level, and Steam account status. Unfortunately, you won't have the opportunity to do something to convince the developers, so you will have to wait until you receive a notification in the main menu of CSGO. Select "ENROLL" once you receive the notification and start the download. After it is complete, launch CSGO and select "Limited Test" to start playing.

Beta Modes and Maps

The beta version of CS2 will offer Deathmatch and Unranked Competitive modes on Dust2. The developers will also be releasing updates with new game modes, maps, and features. In case you encounter any bugs, you can send an email with a description of the problem and steps to reproduce it so Valve can look into it.

Beta Skins

All of your inventory items from CSGO will be transferred to Counter-Strike 2 during the beta testing. However, it won't be possible to modify the items included in the inventory.

Who Won't Be Able to Play?

Unfortunately, not everyone will be able to enjoy testing the game. The beta version is only available on Windows and those with VAC or in-game bans will not be able to play on the VAC servers in Counter-Strike 2.
