Moving forward, Counter-Strike 2 will exclusively support 64-bit Windows and Linux.

For one thing theres more players. Theres also the fact that theres no barrier to entry like MacOS.

Apple charges you a subscription to be able to develop software for MACs, modern Macs also don't support open standards like vulkan as Apple refuses, and Apple has literally dropped just about every level of compatibility from there platform. They literally have a road map to when they will support nothing but native ARM programs.

Theres also the fact that the potential player base for Linux is the exact same as it it for Windows but Macs having no hackentosh's anymore the potential player base is quite small.

Theres too many barriers and not enough potential benefit for Valve to do that.

Because SteamOS is a Linux operating system made by Valve and Steam Deck, also made by Valve, uses SteamOS as it's operating system.
