Following yesterday’s surprise release of Counter-Strike 2 by Valve, it seems the CS2 servers are down this September 28 with players reporting matchmaking issues and long queue times.

Counter-Strike 2 Down With Matchmaking Issues This Sept. 28:

Valve has acknowledged the issues and it’s due to the game’s servers hitting max capacity!

If you're having trouble finding a match it's because we've hit server capacity in different regions.

We're adding more server capacity as fast as possible. Thanks for your patience while this is being addressed.
