**CSGO:Legacy**, or **CSGO (2023)** is the latest version of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive that was officially released by VALVe in 2023 before Counter-Strike 2 took over.

CSGO:Legacy contains several gamemodes that weren't ported over CS2 yet, such as Danger Zone or the Holiday modes.

By default, CSGO:Legacy does not keep up with the player inventory, but there is a way to correct this. Look at the bottom of the page for more info.

# Installation (Steam Deck)
301485 Ch0wW 2025-01-02 22:46:26 41
Similarly to Windows, we will install the `csgo_legacy` branch for Counter-Strike 2. However, we will have to do some extra steps to allow our system to run CSGO.
42
43
1) Go to the properties of Counter-Strike 2.
8757d2 Ch0wW 2025-01-02 22:16:24 44
2) Go to the Betas tab, and select `csgo_legacy - Legacy Version of CS:GO`.
301485 Ch0wW 2025-01-02 22:46:26 45
3) If not already, you will have to switch to Desktop Mode.
46
4) Add a non-steam game
47
48
```
49
/home/deck/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Counter-Strike Global Offensive/csgo.sh
50
```
51
5) In the launch options, add the following:
52
53
```
54
-steam -novid -secure -novid
55
```
56
57
6) In the compatibility options, set it to `Steam Linux Runtime 1.0 (scout)`
