I'm betting it's their recent CS2 rollout, where instead of adding it as a new listing they released it as an update to CS:Go. This meant the next time you logged in, it downloaded the new game and removed the old. The goal was to funnel people over to the new game.
Upsides: CS2 should immediately have the full player base.
Downsides: CS:Go is no longer available. CS2 is not a drop-in replacement, it has higher system requirements and no longer supports Mac. No opportunity for CS:Go to live on through custom servers.
It's definately an odd situation, but it's very much not the norm. Steam tends to be ridiculously good at leaving your library intact. I still play Rocket League through steam even though it's been Epic exclusive (and free) for years.

- cmeacham98 3y agoIf we're talking about CS:GO, it is still available as a "beta" for CS2 - https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/73EF-08A3-0935-6369 https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/73EF-08A3-0935-63... That said, Valve isn't running any servers for the game anymore, so matchmaking will no longer work. But you can relatively easily download the game and play on community/private servers.
- itishappy 3y agoI wasn't aware of that, thanks for the correction! In that case I no longer see any issue.
