The Return of Cache to CS2

Today's update features the return of a classic. Welcome back, Cache!

Cache veterans will feel right at home in familiar locations, while new players can quickly learn the ins and outs of a classic three lane map that rewards strategy and teamplay.

You can find Cache in Casual, Competitive, Deathmatch and Retakes modes (for now).

Don't forget to clear Forklift, and we'll see you on the server.

The legendary de_cache map has returned to CS2 after a long absence. The classic three-lane layout, familiar to series veterans, retains its strategic character that demands thoughtful gameplay and team coordination. New players will quickly master the map's positioning and fundamental tactics thanks to its straightforward architecture.

For community server administrators, this means the opportunity to add de_cache to rotation on both public servers and specialized game modes. The map is supported across all base modes-Casual, Competitive, Deathmatch, and Retakes-allowing flexible configuration for different community types. Plugins and custom scripts for the map should work out of the box, but compatibility with the current game API version is worth verifying.

de_cache is already available in all mentioned modes, though its status in other modifications may change later. Experienced players should refresh their tactics for clearing Forklift and teach new team members standard full-buy strategies and rotations on this map.
