Rush to the cloud — stream Counter-Strike 2 on GeForce NOW for the highest frame rates. Members can play through the newest chapter of Valve’s elite, competitive, first-person shooter from the cloud.

It’s all part of an action-packed GFN Thursday, with 22 more games joining the cloud gaming platform’s library, including Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 – Turbocharged.

“Rush B! Rush B!”

Counter-Strike 2 is the long-awaited upgrade to one of the most recognizable competitive first-person shooters in the world.

Building on the legacy of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, the latest iteration brings the action to Valve’s long-anticipated Source 2 video game engine, promising enhanced graphical fidelity with a physically based rendering system for more realistic textures and materials, dynamic lighting, reflections and more.

Smoke grenades are now dynamic volumetric objects that can interact with their surroundings by reacting to lighting and other environmental effects. And smoke particles work with the unified lighting system, allowing for more realistic light and color.

Even better: GeForce NOW Ultimate members can take full advantage of NVIDIA Reflex for ultra-low-latency gameplay streaming from the cloud. Rush the objective with the squad on Counter-Strike 2’s remastered maps at up to 240 frames per second — a first for cloud gaming. Upgrade today for the Ultimate Counter-Strike experience.
