Counter-Strike 2 will soon be able to pet a chicken

The latest update for Counter-Strike 2 not only taught chickens to land and turn right, but also added animations for interacting with them. Three animations designed to do just that have been discovered in game files.

While these animations cannot be activated in the game itself at this time, youtuber PoPw0w has demonstrated what inspecting chickens looks like. The player character gently turns and strokes the bird, which holds its head in the same position while doing so.

Counter-Strike 2 developers have not yet announced plans to add these animations to the game. Most likely, they won't have any gameplay significance - like the chickens themselves, these animations will be just a fun little thing.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to tell from the available animation files exactly when chicken inspection will be fully added to the game.
