Not so long ago, Valve announced a global CS:GO update that will transfer the shooter to the Source engine. This announcement had an unexpected impact on one of the aspects of the game.
We are talking about cases with custom items. The developers separately noted that all the content from these boxes could be transferred to Counter-Strike 2. As a result, this provoked an unprecedented boom in opening cases by gamers. During the month, according to the CSGO Case Tracker website, players opened 39.5 million boxes with weapons and equipment for the multiplayer shooter. This was an absolute record, the previous record result was reached in March last year, when 26.2 million cases were opened.
According to enthusiasts, this player activity has brought Valve almost $100 million. And this has not yet been calculated in the revenue in the Steam store from operations, from which the company also has a good percentage.
