There has been speculation for quite some time about when Counter-Strike: Global Offensive will migrate to a better graphics engine - Source 2. Recall that currently CS:GO runs on the dated first version of the engine, which dates back to 2004. A year ago, work on the implementation of Source 2 was supposed to have been discontinued, but recent indications suggest that the switch may be happening after all.
The first signal came from Gabe Follower, a user known for digging into game codes, who shared his revelations on Twitter. His finding is a reference to CS:GO in the libengine2 library associated with the new version of Source, which appeared in the latest update to DOTA 2.
