dollars in 2019, a significant increase on the previous two years. The annual cumulative tournament prize pool for the game stood at 21.77 million U.S. With such a large fanbase, it is unsurprising that these eSports tournaments are worth big money. Some of the leading CS:GO eSports tournaments worldwide in 2018 included IEM Katowice 2018 and ELEAGUE Major 2018, the latter peaking at almost 1.9 million viewers. While millions of gamers have fun playing Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, millions more watch official tournaments online. As with its predecessors, the game takes the form of a multiplayer first-person shooter in which two teams are pitted against each other in a variety of different game modes. Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is the fourth game in the Counter-Strike series of games. As of February 2020, Counter-Strike had 24 million monthly active users, more than double the figure from May 2016.
As millions of people were encouraged and, in some cases, legally required to stay at home, many people turned to video gaming as a form of entertainment.ĭespite the fact that CS:GO was released some seven years ago in August 2012, the game is still very popular online and has developed a cult following. This figure had peaked 5 months earlier in March at nearly 1.2 million players, no doubt in part due to the coronavirus pandemic which spread across the world in 2020. In August 2021, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) had on average 802.54 thousand concurrent players on Steam.
