CS:GO gone F2P, also introduced Battle Royale
Yep, it happened today! CS:GO is free to play since today. Also, Valve introduced new mode, Danger Zone - a Battle Royale mode.
Introducing Danger Zone — a fast-paced battle royale game mode built on CS:GO’s tactical gameplay where players use their wits, skill, and resources to fight to the finish. Play solo, or work together as a squad of two or three!
For those, who played Counter Strike: Global Offensive before today, Valve prepared little gift.
All players who played CS:GO before today’s update will receive a commemorative Loyalty Badge they can display on their profile. You were there from the beginning, so show it off! Additionally, all existing CS:GO players have had their accounts upgraded to Prime Status.
For weapon skin lovers, Gaben prepared another surprise - Danger Zone Case.
The Danger Zone Case features 17 community-designed weapon finishes, and the Horizon knives as rare special items.
