Neymar slams Valve for not inviting him to play CS2

AN UPDATED version of one of the most popular games of all time, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, called Counter-Strike 2, has just been released as a limited test.

However, it is only available for a select few people, who have already been granted access.

CS:GO was first released in 2012, but it maintains a strong player base even in 2023.

It gathers around 25million unique players every month to take part in the online shooter.

CS2 is an updated version of the original game, with major graphical enhancements.

However, it is currently only in the beta period, and developer Valve has only invited a small number of players to join.

According to Valve: “Players are selected based on a number of factors deemed important by the Counter-Strike 2 development team.

“[This is] including (but not limited to) recent playtime on Valve official servers, trust factor, and Steam account standing.”

This means that a number of CS:GO fans have missed out on playing the update.

CS:GO pro players Hooxi and m0nesy didn’t receive an invite.

However, they’re in good company as streamer xQc also spoke out about his disappointment in not receiving an invite.

The most popular celebrity who wants access is PSG forward Neymar Jr.

Writing to his fans on Twitter in his mother tongue, Portuguese, as translated by GLHF, Neymar said: “Give daddy CS2.

“I’ve never asked for anything.”

While Neymar appears to be in good spirits about the situation, he clearly would like early access to the update.
