Across the whole map
Set the range from the stock Zeus to the length of any map. A hit is the game's own: lightning, a kill-feed icon and double damage in the head, or a kill on the spot.
Point it at an enemy at the other end of mid, click, and the bolt gets there: with the game's own hit, lightning and the Zeus icon in the kill feed.


Thunder Zeus is a Counter-Strike 2 mod by xplay.gg that turns the Zeus into a weapon for the whole map. The bolt reaches as far as the lobby sets, up to any map's length, with the game's own hit, the Zeus's lightning and the Zeus icon in the kill feed. Everything about it is a setting: range, damage, walls, recharge, a magnet that bends a missed bolt to an enemy near the crosshair, and chain lightning that jumps from the victim to the enemies next to them. Hand out a Zeus on every spawn or make it the only weapon.
The lobby owner changes these in the lobby's Mods tab before the match.
Set the range from the stock Zeus to the length of any map. A hit is the game's own: lightning, a kill-feed icon and double damage in the head, or a kill on the spot.
Chain lightning jumps from the victim to the enemies standing next to them. The magnet bends a bolt that misses to an enemy near your crosshair, while your crosshair stays where it is.
Keep the bolt in sight only, let it wallbang through what a rifle bullet goes through, or let it ignore walls and hit whoever is on the line.
Recharge from 30 seconds down to none: at zero the Zeus fires ten bolts a second while the trigger is held. Give everyone a Zeus on spawn or take away every gun and grenade for a Zeus-and-knife round.

xplay.gg creates a personal lobby with Thunder Zeus already enabled and picks the region with your lowest ping. Already in your own lobby? The mod is turned on there.
Send friends the lobby link, press “Start match” and connect from CS2. Nothing to install: the mod runs on our server.

Fire, then fly with the bullet and steer it with your mouse.

Silent aim: your crosshair stays put, but every bullet flies to the enemy.

The map goes pitch black and every player gets a flashlight on F.

Hold jump in the air to fly, then land to refuel.

Every enemy is on your radar all the time, spotted or not.

A chicken carries the planted bomb around the site: catch it to defuse.

Left click to throw your knife. A few throws per life, or unlimited.

Plant laser tripmines on walls with E: the beam burns whoever crosses it.

Grenades stick to whatever they hit first. An HE on a player hits harder.

A random spot after freeze time, a teleport on every hit, swaps with enemies.

Hide and seek on any map: hiders become props, hunters bring a shotgun.

Kills and hits heal you; a teamkill costs health or your life.

Every grenade, your rules: one-touch kills, endless throws, rubber bounces and cluster HE.

One lethal bullet and a knife: miss, and you go knife hunting.

CTs and Ts swap spawns while the bombsites stay put: every route runs backwards.

Bullets fly instead of hitting instantly: lead your shots and dodge incoming fire.

Hiders shrink and scatter; hunters must spot them before the round runs out.

Play the round as a real CS2 chicken: shoot, plant the bomb, glide and get hit where you stand.

Giant or tiny heads with a hitbox to match: a big head is easy to hit, a small one tests your aim.
No. Thunder Zeus 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.
Two players are enough for a long-range Zeus duel. In a 5v5 turn on chain lightning: one good shot into a stacked site can take the whole team.
Yes. In the lobby's Mods tab the owner sets the range, damage, walls, recharge, magnet, chain lightning, Zeus on spawn, Zeus-only rounds, the look of the bolt, a reminder each round and who gets the mod's Zeus: everyone, one side, a lobby team, random players each round or players picked from the list.
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.
No. Personal matches on xplay.gg are separate from Valve matchmaking and don't change your Premier or Competitive rank.
One click: the lobby opens with the mod on. Invite friends and start the match.
