Counter-Strike 2 Server Hosting, Explained
New to Counter-Strike 2?
What is Counter-Strike 2?
Counter-Strike 2 is Valve's free-to-play tactical team shooter on the Source 2 engine, and the free upgrade to CS:GO. Two teams play short rounds: terrorists plant the bomb, counter-terrorists defend or defuse it. Each round starts with a buy phase, and the money you earn sets what you can afford next round. Beyond Valve's matchmaking, players run their own community servers for practice, retakes, deathmatch, surf and Workshop maps.
Short, Tactical Rounds.
Plant or defuse the bomb, then buy for the next round with what you earned.
Community Modes.
Retake, deathmatch and aim servers, surf and zombie modes on Workshop maps.
Why rent a server?
What is Counter-Strike 2 Server Hosting?
A dedicated server gives your team or community a place of its own, away from matchmaking: your maps, your rules, your password. Hosting it at home means leaving a PC on, forwarding ports and keeping the game updated. With Physgun your server is installed for you, with the game mode, map, Workshop map and passwords in the panel, match rules for every mode in the config editor, a live console and RCON, and full file access over SFTP and SSH.
Always Online.
Your server stays up when you log off, so your team can scrim any time.
Full Control.
Set your mode, map, rules and passwords, and run commands from the console.
