Does CS2 have cheats? Much like any other online multiplayer game, Valve’s Counter-Strike series has often been home to various exploits that make the game easier to play. Though often frowned upon within the community, the taboo associated with these in-game cheats hasn’t stopped some players from using them.

So now that the Counter-Strike 2 release date is practically here, many are predictably wondering whether the follow-up to the highly successful CS:GO has its own collection of cheats. Worry not because we’re here to cover exactly that and more, so keep reading to find out.

Will CS2 have cheats?

No, CS2 has no official cheats at the time of writing. With the game only being released recently, those looking to exploit the in-game code have predictably not yet had the chance to create hacks that make it easier to flick onto players’ heads and see through walls. As the year progresses, though, we expect this to change quickly, as most of Valve’s previous FPS series entries have fallen victim to these exploits.

But even if CS2 cheats are released, we wouldn’t recommend using them. Players who utilize these hacks can quickly be flagged by the in-game anti-cheat system, which will then hand your account a prolonged VAC ban if enough evidence is gathered. Using these exploits also frequently ruins the natural flow of a game for other players, which is why we’d suggest steering clear of cheats as much as possible.
