The latest CS:GO update to hit has introduced glove skins to the game as well as improved lobby functionality.
Tonight's Counter-Strike: Global Offensive update has introduced a new category of skins to the game with the addition of twenty four new gloves for players to equip. The skins are currently only available from the new case that was introduced as well, the Glove Case, which also includes seventeen new weapon skins.
In addition, lobby functionality has been significantly improved with the new group lobby tab, which allows players to see and join lobbies that are hosted by players who are using a group tag from a Steam group you have in common with them; the functionality can be easily turned on or off through the game settings.
Check out the full changelogs below:
