When did CS2 replace CS GO?

Valve released Counter-Strike 2 in September 2023, and it replaced CS:GO. Items you owned in CS:GO carried over into the CS2 inventory. Players, sites and search engines kept using “CS GO” for a long time, so “CS GO dice sites” is now a legacy term for CS2 dice sites. We use both on this site so you can find us either way.

Is CS GO dead, and are dice sites still active?

The old game was replaced, but the gambling sites built around its items kept operating. PLG.BET is the former CSGOPolygon and still says so. CSGORoll and CSGO500 still carry “CSGO” in their names. Operators such as PLG.BET, CSGORoll and CSGO500 still run active dice games. The full ranking lists all five operators we rate.

Do old CS GO skins work on CS2 dice sites?

Your old items are in your CS2 inventory, so they appear in a Steam trade offer. Each site decides which items it accepts and how it prices them, and prices often differ from the Steam Market. Always check the site’s valuation before you deposit. Skin dice vs crypto dice explains the valuation gap.

What differs between a CS GO and a CS2 dice site?

Topic Changed with CS2?
Dice game (random number, target, multiplier) No
House edge and provably fair method No, set by each site
Items you can deposit Same inventory, but each site chooses what it accepts
Steam trade rules (trade URL, holds, public inventory) Set by Steam, check Steam Support for current rules
Name used by sites Many still say “CS GO”

So the practical advice is the same: compare edge, fairness proof and withdrawal rules. Our methodology shows how we score them.

What should you check before using an older site?

  • Does it name its operating company and a licence? See legal and safe.
  • Can you verify a roll with the site’s own tool? See how to verify a roll.
  • Does it explain skin deposits and withdrawals in the terms?

Note: Valve does not endorse third-party gambling sites. Check local laws and Steam’s rules before you deposit items. If gambling stops being fun, see responsible gambling.
