At the end of the week, several sources at once published speculation that a new operation will be coming to CS:GO in the coming weeks. Rumors of this surfaced a few weeks ago after the game received an update containing new translations and changes to item descriptions. Dutch levell designer and skin writer Julian «Hollandje» Hiserman found similarities between the sequence of minor updates the game has received recently and the way they were released on the eve of Operation «Shattered Web». These assumptions were confirmed by Norse – in his tweet, he wrote that the major update will be released really soon, but he prefers not to disclose more details about it yet.
Youtuber VNN Tyler published a video in which he shared his version of expectations about the new update. He believes it may feature a new map called Frostbite, a «one-on-one game mode», as well as adjustments to the existing maps (Office and Mirage). According to Tyler, the Frostbite map looks very impressive, and is the best Danger Zone map available. These upcoming updates will not be limited to this – and what exactly they will bring, players will find out in the near future.
