Chicken C4 in action
What is Chicken C4?
Chicken C4 is a Counter-Strike 2 mod by xplay.gg that hands the planted bomb to a chicken. The bird wanders around the bomb site with the C4 on its back and, by default, glows green through walls, so both teams can see where the bomb went. To defuse, you have to catch up with it first. The chicken cannot be shot and never leaves the site, and the timer, explosion and defuse work as usual.
What you can tune
- Highlight: the chicken glows through walls for both teams
- Glow colour: red slider, 0 to 255
- Glow colour: green slider, 0 to 255
- Glow colour: blue slider, 0 to 255
The lobby owner changes these in the lobby's Mods tab before the match.
Why it's fun
Catch it to defuse
You have to catch up with the chicken first. It stands still only while you defuse and runs off the moment you stop.
Glow in any colour
The chicken glows green through walls, so both teams see where the bomb is. Turn the glow off or pick another colour.
Normal bomb round
The timer, explosion and defuse work as always, and the chicken never leaves the site. It cannot be shot, so chase it down.

No. Chicken C4 runs on the xplay.gg game server. You only need CS2 and a Steam account: connect to the match and the mod is already working.
How many players do I need for Chicken C4?
Two players are enough for a 1v1: one plants, the other chases the chicken. In a 5v5 the Terrorists can cover the chicken while the Counter-Terrorists fight their way to it.

Yes. The lobby owner can turn the chicken's glow through walls on or off and change its colour in the lobby's Mods tab.

Yes. Turn on more mods in the lobby's Mods tab. If two mods can't run together, the lobby tells you before the match starts.
