CS:GO June 9 patch notes: Valve tinkers with Pitstop

While Valve dropped a massive update on 6th June 2021, introducing Unranked Matchmaking and essentially kicking non-Prime accounts out of Ranked, stripping these free accounts of most of their features, the developer's latest CS:GO update is a small one. As some players are still fuming over the previous update, Valve dropped a small CS:GO update on 9th June 2021. Here are the patch notes for the latest CS:GO update so you can, well, stay up to date with all the details.

CS:GO patch notes - Pitstop & SDK improvements

First up, for the CS:GO esports fans out there, Valve fixed the live match links issues in the event panel in-game.

  • Added new “action_secondary_attack” node.
  • Added new “action_reload” and “condition_is_reloading” nodes.
