When CS2 launched, there were many things missing, but the absence of one map was especially noticeable. Cache, one of the most popular maps in CS:GO, has yet to return in Valve's latest series entry, but the map's creator, FMPONE, has released a new update detailing the port's progress.

After Shawn "FMPONE" Snelling confirmed that a Source 2 port of Cache was in the works, he didn't share much with players aside from a few temporary screenshots. But today, we finally got a relatively complete look at Mid, as well as our first look at the A bombsite on the updated version of Cache. Mid looks nice and sunny, though the yellow is much less pronounced than when Snelling first shared his work-in-progress images, while the A site looks nearly identical to the previous version, albeit with a nice facelift. Source 2, even with things still unfinished, just looks so bright and colorful compared to what came before it.

Compared to Cache in CS:GO, Snelling has opted to place the military vehicle much more in the center of the A-site than before. This is, he says, so that CTs have "more retake options" and to reduce the pressure of Mid on the site itself. Snelling also said that the site is "much bigger than before" and that some things missing from the images, namely the iconic forklift, will be added in due course.
