The June update for Counter-Strike 2 (CS 2) has been released, and it brings exciting news for fans of the classic game. One of the iconic maps from Counter-Strike (CS) 1.6, Pool Day, has officially been added to CS 2.

Pool Day: A Nostalgic Return with New Graphics

Pool Day, one of the most beloved maps from the internet cafe era, now features in CS 2 with updated graphics. Currently, the map is available exclusively for the Gun Game mode. Valve has made a nostalgic touch to the iconic Pool Day map. At certain times during the game, you can pull a lever located in one of the lockers on the map, transforming the graphics back to the classic look of CS 1.6's Pool Day. This feature allows players to reminisce about the old days with the original graphics.
