PC Gamer's Ted Litchfield expressed hope in January that there might be room for Valve to reconsider its rejection of Classic Offensive, an eight-years-in-the-making mod for Counter Strike: Global Offensive that aims to recreate the experience of Counter-Strike 1.6. And it's a good day for Ted, because an update posted today on X says Valve has made contact with the team over its "concerns" the mod may violate Steam guidelines.
Classic Offensive mod team leader ZooL had been experimenting with Counter-Strike mods as far back as 2015: We first reported on Classic Offensive in 2016, and it was approved by Steam's defunct Greenlight program in 2017.
