Valve Files New CS2 Trademarks: Is a New Counter-Strike Game on the Horizon?

This month, Valve filed several very intriguing new trademark applications, and they might be connected to the rumors that a Counter-Strike: Global Offensive sequel is in the works.

The business recently submitted two trademark applications for a product known only as “CS2.” Many, however, assume this is a filing for the Counter-Strike series because the trademark’s additional details reveal that it is a game and may involve some level of competition.

Aquarius stated in a tweet:

Did some digging. Apparently, the new 'CS2' trademarks are directly related to CS:GO: pic.twitter.com/tWglOMD8yB

According to PC Gamer, these most recent “CS2” trademarks were located on the US Patent and Trademark Office website. Valve registered both trademarks on March 14, 2023.

The first CS2 trademark simply states “video game software,” which is probably sufficient to make some inferences and officially link Valve, CS2, and video games.

The second trademark is a little clearer and sounds very much like what Valve and Counter-Strike fans would expect from a future installment of the series:

Entertainment services, namely, providing online video games; provision of on-line entertainment, namely, on-line computer games; providing on-line computer games and on-line video games… organization of competitions relating to video games, video game education, and video game entertainment…

The specific reference to “video game competitions” seems to be a dead giveaway for a legitimate CSGO2. Readers may also remember that a recent report claimed that a rumored Counter-Strike 2 (apparently a working title) was nearing completion and might be officially unveiled as late as April 1.

Dataminers appear to have found “csgo2.exe” files in an update to the Nvidia graphics drivers, which revealed additional information about the rumored game. This would imply that a new Counter-Strike executable is already prepared and almost ready to launch.

Must check about Counter-Strike:

  • The Beta for Counter-strike: Global Offensive 2 is About to Begin
  • The Wait is Almost Over: Counter-Strike 2 Playable Beta on the Horizon

As of yet, Valve has made no official announcements about a new Counter-Strike game. A lot of arrows do, however, point in the same general direction. If CSGO2 is real, it appears that we might see it very soon.
