Browse, filter, and join Counter-Strike 2 servers from your desktop or inside the game.
The CS2 Server List Windows app connects to the same live database as CS2ServerList.com. Find active servers faster, save favorites on your PC, and use the in-game overlay to switch servers without alt-tabbing out of Counter-Strike 2.
Whether you pub-stomp, practice aim, or run community nights, the app is built to get you into the right server with less friction.
Find active servers fasterLive player counts, maps, ping, and rankings from CS2ServerList — updated continuously.

Filter like the websiteGame modes, countries, distance, empty/full, and offline filters work the same way you already know.
Connect through SteamJoin launches CS2 with the correct server address — no manual IP copy-paste.
Lightweight on your PCRuns from the tray, optional start-with-Windows, and no account required to browse.
Prefer the browser? You can still explore CS2 servers on the website from any device.
Everything is designed to be fast with keyboard and mouse — especially when the overlay is open over CS2.
Use ↑ and ↓ to move through the server list. Hold an arrow to keep scrolling. Page Up / Page Down, Home, and End also work.
Press Enter once to select a server. Press Enter again to connect. This helps prevent accidental joins while you browse.
Double-click a server row with your mouse to connect immediately — handy when you already know where you want to play.
Set a hotkey in Settings (for example Alt + X) to show or hide the server list on top of CS2. Press the same hotkey again when you are done.
Tip for overlays
For the smoothest in-game experience, run CS2 in borderless windowed mode. Exclusive fullscreen can block overlays on Windows.
Scroll to explore each part of the Windows app — screenshots and short notes appear as you go.
Daily CS2 playersJump between retake, surf, DM, or 5v5 servers without digging through Steam.
Community regularsKeep favorite community servers and recent joins on hand.
Competitive grindersSort by ping and distance to find the best connection.
Server hopperUse history to bounce between active pubs when queues die.

The app connects to CS2ServerList to load public server data (the same information you see on the website). It may look up your approximate location through ipinfo.io when you use distance sorting — your coordinates are kept locally on your PC for that feature.
When you connect to our server hub, we see a routine connection from the desktop app (app name and version) so we can keep the service running — we do not receive your Steam password, Discord messages, or in-game chat.
Favorites, history, filters, and settings are stored on your computer. See our Privacy Policy — Windows App section for full details.
