Counter Strike Source 2 has recently surprised us with its announcement and beta release. Despite this, dataminers do not rest and continue to search for new information. Check out what they have discovered.
For a few days now, at least part of the community of the iconic FPS can enjoy a revamped version of Counter Strike with the Source 2 engine.
Although we are still amazed that the rumors and leaks of our dataminers have been confirmed, they still surprised us with another unexpected news.

In this situation, as it was similarly with Counter Strike 2, Valve's silence does not help us. In turn, it is worth noting that games like PUBG, Call of Duty and Fortnite have done very well in the mobile market, so we should not completely rule out such a scenario.
Nevertheless, we are left only to speculate on this possibility and count on the reliability of our dataminers.
