Valve accidentally removes CS:GO from Steam Store

It seems that something has gone wrong over on Steam, as a set of games just disappeared from the Steam Store. Making matters worse, one of these is CS:GO, one of the biggest and most-played games on Valve's platform. 

At the time of writing, CS:GO can not be viewed on the Steam Store and the game's community hub has also disappeared. However, multiplayer services, workshop and marketplace are still working. As pointed out by SteamDB, other games are also affected.

Over the last three hours, many DLC listings for games have also disappeared, in addition to some of Steam's movie and TV show collection – an area that Valve stepped away from a while back.

According to SteamDB developer, Pavel Djundik, this appears to be an issue on Valve's end. Fortunately, the packages are still on Steam, so Valve will soon be able to restore the Steam Store pages and community hub features. There is no ETA for when this might happen but we'll likely see it fixed at some point today.

KitGuru Says: Given that CS:GO is consistently one of the top-three most played games on Steam, having it disappear from the Steam Store is a pretty big deal. Hopefully Valve will have a fix in place later today to get everything restored.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
