The Developer Console in Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) is an indispensable tool. It helps gamers enhance their playing experience. It serves as a command hub, allowing you to tweak game settings to your preferences, from adjusting FPS to customizing game controls.
Enabling the Developer Console
Before being able to use the full potential of the CS2 console, you need to enable it — a straightforward process:

By default, pressing the ~ or ` key, which is usually below the [ESC] key on your keyboard, will now bring up the console.
