"Mirage", also known by its filename de_mirage, is a video game map in the first-person shooter series Counter-Strike. Released officially in 2013 by Valve Corporation, the game's developer, it expanded the original Counter-Strike and Counter-Strike: Source map "de_cpl_strike",[1] developed by Michael "BubkeZ" Hüll.[2] One of Counter-Strike's most popular maps, Mirage has been used in a number of esports tournaments and Major Championships due to its balanced level design and its opportunities for players to display their tactical and coordination skills. Over time, the map has undergone changes and updates by Valve to improve its quality and increase the tactical balance.
