In this video I cover how to install and play Counter-Strike 2 on Linux, without using a compatibility layer such as Steam Proton, and fix the missing audio bug. Step 1. Install Latest GPU Driver. The game recommends that you have a GPU that supports graphic pipeline library, and the easiest way to enable that is to update your GPU driver. My recommendation would be to read the Installing Drivers page of the Lutris wiki, as this covers the installation process for both AMD and Nvidia hardware across a wide range of Linux distributions including Ubuntu, Manjaro, Arch and Fedora. Step 2. Install Steam. Since Counter-Strike 2 is exclusive to Steam, you will first need to install Steam itself, which in most cases can be done using your distribution's package manager. For example, if you are using an Ubuntu based distribution, then Valve provide a Steam installation package that can be downloaded and installed from their website. Alternatively, if you are using an Arch based distribution, then you can install Steam using the following Terminal command: sudo pacman –S steam In either case, once Steam is installed, launch it as normal, apply the update, and then sign into your account. Step 3. Install Counter-Strike 2. With Steam running, install the game as normal, by clicking the blue Install button, and once installation has finished, launch using the green Play button. If you experience a bug with missing audio on a system that uses Pipewire, this can be fixed by right clicking on the properties of the game, selecting the General tab, navigating to LAUNCH OPTIONS and then adding the following. -sdlaudiodriver pipewire Just make sure that if you have any other launch parameters to put this after %command% For example: gamemoderun %command% -sdlaudiodriver pipewire Social Media Links Discord - Facebook - Mastodon - @Intelligentgaming Reddit - Twitter -
