-Counter-Strike Global Offensive, or CS:GO, is yet another variation of the [[Counter-Strike]] series. This title was released on 21st of August 2012 by the publisher [[Valve]], which also contributed as Developer, together with [[Hidden Path Entertainment]]. It adds new game modes and new functionalities. The most important ones are distinguishing between official ladder games (so-called competitive) and so-called casual matches, the new War Games maps as well as an official Deathmatch. On the other hand, the available maps are not defined by the availability of the corresponding files at the local computer but by officially allowed maps. Other maps can be added via the Steam Workshop. But especially for competitive matches only a limited set of maps are actually available. This included famous maps such as Inferno, Nuke or Dust II, but other classic maps such as Aztec are missing altogether.
