The Panorama UI is now available for beta testing. Players can opt into the newest beta depot to access the well-anticipated in-game interface, which includes changes to the main menu, the scoreboard, and so much more.

This specific portion of the Panorama UI that is being previewed only allows players to practice with bots, though. The preview of the Panorama UI also allows users to play with one friend in an offline practice session, so that you can experiment with in-game options on your own.

It seems that the developer is moving fast with its release, especially now that a preview is available for testing. Usually when things are released in beta testing, they are shipped into the game about a week after. This is a change in behavior for Valve, who have gained a notoriety for taking what seems to be forever to push an update.

CS:GO will be the second Valve game to receive an upgrade to the Panorama UI framework, right after Dota 2. More information on Panorama UI can be found on Valve’s developer website.

To opt into the beta depot, right click on CS:GO in your Steam library, click properties, select the “Betas” tab, click on the dropdown menu, and select “panorama – Panorama UI Preview.” From there you can test out the new Panorama UI to your heart’s content.
