YouTube’s ‘Crowbcat’ has shared a pretty cool video, showing what a VR version of Counter-Strike could have looked like. Crowbcat used Pavlov and H3VR in order to give us a glimpse at this potential VR version of Counter-Strike, and it looks incredibly cool.
Now this is mostly a concept video and nothing more. While players can play Pavlov and H3VR right now, there isn’t any Counter-Strike mod or a VR fan remake of Counter-Strike (at least not one that we are aware of).
A VR version of Counter-Strike would open new gameplay possibilities (provided it’s close to what Crowbcat showcases here). Gamers would be able to improve their weapon accuracy by holding their guns tighter, they would be able to blindly throw grenades around corners, they would be able to pick up and throw enemy grenades, shoot simultaneously in two directions, shoot blindly from a cover, steal a clip from their enemies, kill them with their knives and more.
Seriously, this is something that Valve should consider creating, especially since Counter-Strike is so popular. Moreover, a proper – and high-quality – VR version of Counter-Strike would definitely boost the VR headset sales.
Enjoy!

after 30mins of playing this game the motion sickness headache makes me go lay down somewhere >_>
I really dig the past tense of this title.
I’m not sure you’re supposed to take seriously this video. Looks like crowbcat being crowbcat, but then again i can’t be so sure about that…Looking at his latest videos we could expect anything…
Honestly this looks interesting. If CSVR was available right now,
I would take it for a spin. My Vive is collecting dust atm… :/
I played the Pavlov version for Vive and it’s pretty cool. I think it’s like $5. It was just the Dust2 map really. I never got a good feeling for the controls though. That’s the rough part. Reloading and grabbing items off your belt is a challenge for me.
“A VR version of Counter-Strike would open new gameplay possibilities”
It does offer some limitations as well, like reduced agility.
like reduced everything that makes CS great
wow it looks so immersive!
feels more like Red Orchesra than CSGO honestly
this is the first time i ever viewed the VR in a positive light
well, maybe down the line when they reduce the price of those headsets
i’ll grab one.
