Questions
Can I play Counter-Strike 2 without downloading it?
Yes. Walter holds the install on its own gaming PC and streams the game to your browser. Nothing lands on your device.
Is Counter-Strike 2 free on Walter?
Counter-Strike 2 is free on Steam, and playing it on Walter is free during the early alpha. You need a Steam account, which costs nothing.
Do I need a gaming PC?
No. Walter brings the gaming PC. Your Mac or Chromebook only has to show the picture.
Which devices work?
Any Mac or Chromebook with a current browser, and any PC. Each has its own page below with the details.
Do I keep my progress?
Yes. You sign in with your own Steam account inside the game window, so your progress, items and friends are the ones you already have.
Will it lag?
That depends on how far you are from the nearest Walter machine. Within 500km it plays like a rig under your desk. Further out you feel it in a shooter. The coverage page on walter.gg shows where the machines are.
Can I always play right away?
Not always. Walter is in early alpha and there are only so many machines. On a busy evening they can all be taken, and then you wait or come back later.
