Valve&#8217;s April 29, 2026 update adds the reworked version of Cache to Competitive, Casual, Deathmatch, and Retakes modes, putting it back in rotation for the first time since 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cache originally entered the Active Duty pool back in 2014, quickly becoming a fan favourite. Its removal from Active Duty in 2019 left a void that the CS2 community has been vocal about ever since. Today, that wait is over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Full_April_2026_CS2_Patch_Notes_Breakdown\"><\/span>Full April 2026 CS2 Patch Notes Breakdown<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond Cache, the update also delivers improvements across maps, animations, sound, and general bug fixes.
