Web FPS Without the Compromises

Web FPS used to mean dumbed-down arcade games: small maps, two weapons, awkward mouse aim. Modern our in-browser engine changes that. PlayCSOnline ships the full CS 1.6 engine — same game files the original Steam version used — to your browser, with modern browser graphics rendering and our network layer networking matching desktop latency.

If your browser supports modern web standards (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari from 2020 onwards) you get the same competitive FPS that LANs and tournaments shipped 20 years ago.
