Previously Take

An 81 average from 1,353 ratings. Does what it sets out to do, no more and no less. This is about the gunplay, from Valve. Warfare set the stage, the shooting does the talking. Queue up with friends; this one lives and dies on its multiplayer.

About this game

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is a team-based multiplayer first-person shooter developed by Valve and Hidden Path Entertainment. Two teams, Terrorists and Counter-Terrorists, compete in objective-based rounds across various game modes including bomb defusal, hostage rescue, and deathmatch. The game features an economy system where players purchase weapons and equipment at the start of each round based on performance in previous rounds. Competitive matchmaking, community servers, and a robust skin trading ecosystem support a large active player base.
