Valve finally released Counter Strike: Global Offensive for Linux.
Counter Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) is an objective-based multiplayer first-person shooter in which players join either the Terrorist or Counter-Terrorist team. CS:GO uses the Source engine and it was initially released in August, 2012, as the fourth game in the Counter-Strike franchise.
Compared to the previous games in the series, CS:GO includes ranked match-making, extra weapons and equipment, new and revamped maps along with extra modes (Arms Race, Arsenal: Demolition - which combines Defuse and Arms Race, and Deathmatch) and more.
In my short test under Ubuntu 14.10, I didn't encounter any major issues while playing CS:GO, even with my laptop's integrated Intel graphics. However, since the game was just released for Linux, expect to find some bugs (check out this Reddit thread for some potential issues) - if you encounter bugs, report them @ GitHub.
Note that game Steam page wasn't updated to show the newly added Linux support so it won't show up in the Linux section yet, but this should change soon.
