Continued Strike Is Live
Sep 9, 2026
Closed Beta has wrapped — Continued Strike is fully live now, out of the invite-only trial we ran to work through the early rough edges. Thanks to everyone who played, reported bugs, and stuck around while things got stable.
Access is still invite-only while we scale up server capacity. If you're not whitelisted yet, the fastest way in is still requesting access in Discord.
News & Guides Pages Are Here
Aug 23, 2026
Two new pages just went up: News (you're reading it) for patch notes and announcements, and a proper Guides page covering install, account setup, installer troubleshooting, and how ranked/ELO actually works. Both are linked from the header and footer from now on.
Friends & Live Chat Now Live
Aug 20, 2026
Add friends straight from your Steam account and message them in real time — synced with the desktop client, so it's one friends list and one set of conversations everywhere you're signed in. Find it under Friends and Chat once you're logged in.
New Look: Profile, Matches & Leaderboard
Aug 15, 2026
Profile, Match History, and the Leaderboard all got a visual pass — a map-by-map win rate breakdown, a proper rank tier ladder (see the Rank Distribution guide), and match rows that actually line up under their column headers now.
Closed Beta Is Live
Aug 1, 2026
The Closed Beta is up and running now — a 5v5 tactical shooter with a real ELO ladder, live stats after every match, and your actual Steam inventory pulled straight into the client.
Access is whitelist-only while we work through the early rough edges with a smaller group first. If you're not whitelisted yet, the fastest way in is requesting access in Discord — invites go out from there as spots open up.
The client is Windows-only for now, free to play, with more platforms planned down the line.
Weapon Skin Showcase
Jul 8, 2026
A look at some of the weapon skins live in Continued Strike right now — knives, rifles, and everything in between, pulled straight from the same inventory data the desktop app uses.
Every skin you own shows up in the Skins Database, searchable by exact float, pattern, and StatTrak™ — see the Guides page for how to use it.
