How to Keep Your CS2 Server Updated Automatically
How to set up automatic updates for your Counter-Strike 2 dedicated server.
Manual Update
- Stop your server
- In the XGamingServer Panel, on the Dashboard, click Reinstall Server
- Wait, then start
Auto-Update on Restart
XGamingServer typically auto-updates CS2 on each server restart if configured in Startup settings.
Important
- CS2 updates frequently — keeping the server updated is critical
- Version mismatches prevent players from connecting
- After updates, check that plugins still work (Metamod/CounterStrikeSharp may need updating)
