Counter Strike 2 on console would be a fantastic development for fans of competitive shooters. Considering the options, a PS5 or Xbox Series X|S platform release would make the most sense for Valve’s tactical FPS, especially considering that CS2 is an update to CS:GO, featuring updated visuals and effects, as well as new mechanics, in the Source 2 engine. Here, we answer if Counter Strike 2 is on console, including if it’s on PS5 and Xbox.
