This allowed it to firmly occupy its niche in the competitive scene, which may have contributed to its lasting success.
Counter-Strike has a global community, with high-level teams and players found in every region of the world.Īlthough it is highly influential in popularizing first-person shooters (FPS) in esports, no other game in the genre has yet to replicate Counter-Strike’s unique gameplay formula. The series has seen nearly twenty years of success in esports and with tournament prize pools regularly reaching six figures, it is also one of the most profitable routes in professional gaming. From there the game’s competitive scene would erupt until Counter-Strike became the world’s most popular esport. After the original game’s full version was released in 2000, the shooter made its esports debut a year later at the 2001 Cyberathlete Professional League (CPL) Winter Championship. No esport has seen the same type of longevity as Valve’s Counter-Strike series.
