<h1>Counter-Strike: Global Offensive & CS2 Server Hosting Guide</h1>
<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) and Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) are competitive tactical first-person shooters. This guide covers everything needed to host a dedicated CS:GO or CS2 server on Linux or Windows.</p>
<p><strong>Note:</strong> CS2 replaced CS:GO in September 2023. Most concepts apply to both, but CS2 uses Source 2 engine with some differences. This guide covers both versions.</p>
