A Counter-Strike 1.6 remake by some of the most experienced modders in the game's history has been announced and is coming to Steam.

A remake of the legendary Counter-Strike 1.6 is set to launch on Steam this year - but Valve's history of shutting down fan projects remains a concern.

Here’s what the description of the trailer stated: “CS:Legacy is a fully standalone remake of Counter-Strike 1.6, built from the ground up with 100% custom game code and game assets.

Ksharp, GuX, ruuit and seven other former CS 1.6 pros who could have been good in the competitive world of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

Take the spirit of Counter-Strike 1.6, the Valve shooter that would spawn CSGO and CS2, and transplant it into some low-poly cars for this new Steam racer.

Though if you're itching for some Counter-Strike action then you're probably better off downloading Steam and a copy of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. That is free-to-play after all.
