The game’s player base grew 12 percent that same month, according to Steam charts. The last Major in January, ELEAGUE Boston, broke the Twitch viewership record for concurrent streams on a single channel at 1.13 million viewers during the grand final. It’s likely that Valve made CS:GO free-to-download so that the player-base can grow while its prestigious $1 million tournament is going on. This means new users can test their skills in popular workshop maps like aim_botz and partake in the pick-em challenge for the London Major without even having to buy the game. The Free Edition of the game gives prospective players access to offline play against bots and access to popular matches via GOTV, the in-game viewing client. The biggest downside to the lite version of the game is that it doesn’t let players play casual, competitive, or community-based online games, which are the main features of CS:GO. Related: Stickers for the FACEIT London Major are now available To download the game, go to the CS:GO page in the Steam Store, and scroll down to where it says “Play Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Free Edition.” From there, a large download should be queued in your Steam library. Now it’s finally available for download in the Steam client. Valve announced in a small game update several days ago that CS:GO will be downloaded for free, ahead of the 13th Major in the game’s history, FACEIT London. Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is officially free to download in the Steam Store.
