CS:GO Free 2 Play during ESWC

As we speak VALVE Announced that CS:GO (Counter-strike Global Offensive) will be free to play for the duration of the ESWC World Finals.

It sounds like a pure publicity stunt, VALVE and CS:GO are facing difficult times as the game hasn't attracted the attention they had been hoped for prior to the release of the title.

As we all know, the previous versions of the legendary Counter-Strike franchise, especially 1.6, have made eSports big in general. Sponsors were confident and invested tons of money over the years and mainly during the golden days of CS 1.6, mainly in prize money and team sponsorships.

It can be said that the feeling of the old Counter-Strike games has been completely removed, but on the other hand; the graphics have been improved.



In this way VALVE hopes to welcome many newcomers at the newly released first-person-shooter. A delegation from VALVE will be present in  Paris to discuss about necesarry steps about how to improve the game. Ofcourse they refer here to the gameplay, if it can be adjusted in terms of competition and maybe more.

Summed up, the game will be free to play from 6PM on Thursday until 9PM on Sunday. Anyone with a Steam account can make free use of the game in the hopes to convince people to fall in love with the latest version of the CS series.
