Valve’s Feb. 28 update for Counter-Strike 2 includes resounding changes to Inferno, with devs cleaning up the map after it fell heavily out of favor among the player base after the launch of the sequel.
Inferno was the crown jewel of the Counter-Strike map pool for a long time and many players were excited to see what Valve had in store for the map in CS2 but a combination of clutter and a “feeling of claustrophobia,” best described by Erik “fl0m” Flom’s video on the remake, has seen it banned more often than not in the map veto. It all came to a head at IEM Katowice: Inferno was only picked twice at the tournament according to coverage site HLTV.
