Premier Season 5: remade Cache enters Active Duty replacing Overpass; the C4 explosion is rebuilt — per-map baked damage, expanding shockwave that clears smokes and extinguishes molotovs.

Cache joins Competitive/Casual/Deathmatch/Retakes queues and gets a major remake (bigger bomb radius, lowered B-Main doorway, redone A E-box); Animgraph 2 rebuilds third-person animation; camera recoil shake tuned back toward CS:GO feel.

v1.41.4.12026-03-18
The year’s biggest weapon change: reloading now discards the remaining mag instead of stitching bullets, ammo UI shows magazine-by-magazine counts, and every gun’s reserve pool was re-signed (Galil +50, SSG 08 −70, AWP −20...). First five rounds gain an official in-game map guide.

v1.41.1.62025-10-23
Retakes ships as an official queue (Defusal Group Alpha/Delta, 4-stack limit) with loadout retune (10-30); trade-up contracts can now produce knives and gloves (5× Covert → knife/glove; StatTrak chain included).
SystemMisc3 changesDetails →
v1.41.1.32025-10-15
Engine refresh rewrites bullet penetration (lower CPU) and overhauls defusing — you must holster your weapon, scoping is locked out, and a 150ms fire delay follows the action; C4 no longer detonates after the round ends.
System3 changesDetails →
v1.41.0.72025-09-25
The Genesis drop era starts: a 17-item community collection via the new Uplink Terminal, cs_script JavaScript map scripting (sample script_zoo), per-grenade pin-pull sounds, spectator loadout viewing — and build-level scripting APIs expand (OnPlayerKill/OnBombPlant hooks).
