Counter-Strike Neo (Japanese: カウンターストライク ネオ) is a Japanese arcade adaptation of Counter-Strike, the original Half-Life multiplayer modification. It is published by Namco and runs on a Linux system. The game features unique maps, factions, and setting, though the gameplay and the weapon selection remain the same as other games.
Overview[]
Neo includes several major and minor changes. The game does not feature traditional Terrorist versus Counter-Terrorist scenarios, the two sides are renamed CSF and NEO respectively. It incorporates a matchmaking and Elo-derived rating system to help keep players and teams on even footing. The game is anime-styled to better market it in Japan.
Along with Neo, there are several Flash visual novels spin-offs set within the same setting made by developer Romancework, titled Counter-Strike NEO -WHITE MEMORIES-. The visual novels have a continuing storyline and even some portions that loosely resemble Counter-Strike gameplay.

Trivia[]
- Neo uses GoldSrc game engine which is the same as most classic Counter-Strike games. However, most of the weapon models are ported from Counter-Strike: Source with some animations from Counter-Strike: Condition Zero Deleted Scenes.
