Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) October 10 release notes: Hitbox fixes, CPU performance improvements, and more

Counter-Strike 2 got another set of release notes today, October 10, 2023, with the patch looking to address several of the performance issues that the shooter has been facing post-launch. Some of the biggest highlights of the patch will be the improvements made to the Hitboxes. There were several alignment bugs in the game, and today’s update sought to address a fair bit of them to make gunplay more balanced.

Bug fixes are deployed for several maps as well. Mirage, Vertigo, and Nuke have all received updates that sought to fix some of the issues they were having.

The update also fixed a bug where loadout changes were not saved if Counter-Strike 2 was shut down right after making the changes.
