If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, the makers of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds must be feeling pretty darn good about themselves right now. Since PUBG blew up earlier this year, games like Fortnite, GTA Online, and Ark: Survival Evolved have all added their own battle royale modes, and it seems like another major game may be planning to join the fray.

The Valve News Network has done some digging into the last year-and-a-half of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive updates, and have found evidence that may point to a planned battle royale mode. The code for these updates includes numerous refences to a “survival” mode, and an unreleased island map. Hmmm! The updates are also littered with references to PUBG-esque weapons and items, like compound bows, light and heavy armor, parachutes, drones, adrenaline shots, sonar, beacons, night vision goggles, and more. Hmmm, again! You can check out the evidence for yourself, below.
