You read it right: Valve’s latest update to Counter-Strike 2, has the Copenhagen 2024 Champions Autograph Capsule and added a new element to the game that will make your CS inventory items disappear for viewers. This CS2 update is the first one after the Copenhagen CS2 Major 2024, which ended on Apr 1, 2024.
As a part of the latest CS2 update, it has added the Copenhagen 2024 Champions Autograph Capsule to the CS2 Major hub. This will add special autographs of the winning team of the Major, which this time was NAVI. They pipped FaZe in the finals of the tournament to take home the PGL CS2 Major trophy and the glory of being the winners of the first-ever CS2 Major. The sticker capsule is available to buy from the in-game Copenhagen 2024 Major Hub. It is priced at ₹79.
With this update, Valve has tweaked the Invetories of players to make the items that were bought or traded by players in the last ten days invisible to viewers.

The intentions behind this update are unclear, and it will be interesting to see what kind of effects this update has on the CS2 skins trading and enthusiast scene.

The update note about this read – “Fixed another threading bug that could lead to a frame rate hitch, especially if all CPUs were busy.”
Additionally, Valve has also fixed a case of sticky collisions when jumping against surfaces.
Seeing Valve actively working on content for the game and bringing in regular updates to CS2 brings in a lot of promise for the community that the game sits in a good place, and we could soon see the much-awaited big CS2 update that adds new content to the game.
