Valve ha appena annunciato lo sviluppo in collaborazione con Hidden Path Entertainment di Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, nuovo titolo della celebre serie FPS nata su PC che approda questa volta anche su console Playstation 3 e Xbox 360 in uscita per i primi mesi dell’anno 2012.

Grazie al recente accordo stipulato tra Sony e Valve, il gioco sarà godibile in modalità multigiocatore sfruttando la condivisione tra le reti Steam e Playstation Network già avvenuta con Portal 2, permettendo allo stesso utente di sfruttare il suo medesimo account per continuare a collezionare punti in una stessa statistica globale.

Il titolo, ancora in fase pre-beta, sarà mostrato in azione al prossimo Eurogamer Expo 2011 e PAX 2011, rispettivamente dal 22 al 25 Settembre 2011 e dal 26 al 28 Agosto 2011 , mentre la sua distribuzione sarà solo tramite i canali digitali Steam, Playstation Network e Xbox Live nei primi mesi del 2012.

Maggiori dettagli nel comunicato ufficiale:

Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Counter-Strike, Half-Life, Left 4 Dead, Portal, and Team Fortress) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today announced Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS: GO).

Targeted for release via Playstation Network, Xbox Live Arcade, and Steam (for PC and Mac) in early 2012, CS: GO will expand upon the team-based action gameplay that it pioneered when it was launched exactly 12 years ago (CS beta 1, August 1999).

CS: GO features new maps, characters, and weapons and delivers updated versions of the classic CS content (de_dust, etc.). In addition, CS: GO will introduce new gameplay modes, matchmaking, leader boards, and more.

“Counter-Strike took the gaming industry by surprise when the unlikely MOD became the most played online PC action game in the world almost immediately after its release in August 1999,” said Doug Lombardi, VP of Marketing at Valve. “For the past 12 years, it has continued to be one of the most-played games in the world, headline competitive gaming tournaments and selling over 25 million units worldwide across the franchise. CS: GO promises to expand on CS’ award-winning gameplay and deliver it to gamers on the PC as well as the next gen consoles and the Mac.”

CS: GO is being developed by Valve in cooperation with Seattle-based Hidden Path Entertainment. The title is targeted for release in early 2012 and will be playable at this year’s PAX Prime and London Games Festival.
