City of Sin (de_cityofsin) is a cut bomb defusal map that was supposed to be released with Counter-Strike: Condition Zero.
Overview[]
The map takes places in what appears to be an abandoned city. There are two bomb targets in the map, one of which appears to be a church of some kind.
Development[]
City of Sin was designed by Ritual Entertainment while they were in charge of the development of Counter-Strike: Condition Zero.[1] It was likely one of the original 10 multiplayer maps[2] that were to be released with Ritual's version of the game. The map made no known media appearances during development. For unknown reasons, the map was never officially released.
Coinciding with the Half-Life 2 leak, a version of Counter-Strike: Condition Zero was also leaked. This leak included a fully playable version of the map.[3]
Trivia[]
- In the leaked version of the map, a few Counter-Terrorists spawn points are located outside the buy zone. This causes problems when playing with bots as they will be unable to purchase weapons.
- City of Damned, a New Zombie Shelter map in Counter-Strike Online, is based on this map.
