What Is an Online CS2 Demo Viewer?

A CS2 demo (a .dem file) is a complete recording of a match that Counter-Strike 2 can play back tick by tick. Every match you play in Matchmaking, Premier, FACEIT, or a tournament is saved as a demo — but watching it the usual way means launching the game, loading the map, and steering the camera yourself with demo playback commands.

An online demo viewer skips all of that. GetReplay parses the .dem file on our servers and rebuilds the match as an interactive 2D replay you open in any browser. There's nothing to install, nothing to configure, and no demoui to fight with — you just press play and start analyzing.

Because everything runs in the browser, you can review demos on a laptop, a work PC, or your phone, share a round with a teammate through a single link, and keep permanent cloud access to every match you've uploaded.

Everything You Can Do With a Demo

2D Replay with Smart Mode

2D Replay with Smart Mode

Watch the whole match on an interactive 2D map. Smart Mode automatically follows the action and skips the dead time between fights, so a 40-minute match takes only minutes to review.

Event Timeline

Event Timeline

Every kill, plant, defuse, and utility usage is laid out on a clickable timeline. Jump straight to any round or moment in one click instead of typing demo_gototick in the console.

Position Heatmaps

Position Heatmaps

See where you and your opponents fight, hold, and die on every map. Heatmaps reveal predictable peeks, weak spots, and the angles you keep losing — patterns you can't notice while playing.

Grenade Analysis

Grenade Analysis

Review every flash, smoke, molotov, and HE — where it was thrown from, where it landed, and how much impact it had. Copy the lineups that work and fix the utility that goes to waste.

Clutch & Round Breakdown

Clutch & Round Breakdown

Replay 1vX clutches and key rounds step by step to understand exactly what won or lost them — positioning, timing, info, and trades all in one view.

Full Stats & Scoreboard

Full Stats & Scoreboard

K/D/A, ADR, headshot %, opening duels, kill and damage matrices, and round-by-round economy. Turn a gut feeling into numbers and track whether you're actually improving.

Supported Demos & Maps

If it's a valid CS2 .dem file, GetReplay can read it. Upload it manually or let auto-sync pull your latest matches automatically.

Matchmaking — your official Valve competitive matches
Premier — ranked Premier season demos
FACEIT — pug and league demos that often won't open in the CS2 client
ESEA — league and pug demos
Tournament & GOTV — pro demos downloaded from HLTV and event sites
Community & scrims — server-recorded .dem files

All current active-duty and competitive pool maps are supported, with accurate radar layouts for the 2D replay.

Online Viewer vs In-Game Demo Playback

Watching demos inside Counter-Strike 2 works, but it's slow and fragile. Here's how an online viewer compares.

Launching the game
Not needed — opens in your browser
Must start CS2 and load the map every time
Device
Any device — desktop, tablet or phone
Only a PC that can run CS2
Navigation
Click any round or event on the timeline
Console commands like demo_gototick and demoui
Stability
No crashes, stutters, or out-of-sync demos
Demos often lag, desync, or crash on playback
Stats & analysis
Heatmaps, matrices, grenade and clutch breakdowns built in
Raw playback only — no analytics
Sharing
Send a teammate a link to the exact moment
Everyone needs the demo file locally

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I watch a CS2 demo without launching the game?
Sign in to GetReplay with Steam, upload your .dem file (or enable auto-sync), and the match opens as a 2D replay right in your browser. You don't need to start Counter-Strike 2, load a map, or use any demo commands.
How do I open a .dem file?
A .dem file is a CS2 demo. You can open it in the game by placing it in the game folder and using the console, but the easiest way is to upload it to GetReplay — it parses the file and shows you the full match with stats and a 2D replay in seconds.
Where does CS2 store my demos and how do I find them?
Matchmaking and Premier demos can be downloaded from your match history in the game's Watch tab and are saved under your Steam userdata or the game's replays folder. FACEIT and tournament demos are downloaded from their websites. Once you have the .dem file, upload it to GetReplay to watch it online.
How do I download my matchmaking or Premier demos?
Open Counter-Strike 2, go to Watch → Your Matches, and download a recent match. CS2 keeps your recent competitive and Premier matches available for a limited time, so download them before they expire, then upload the .dem to GetReplay.
Can I watch FACEIT demos, and why won't my FACEIT demo open in CS2?
Yes. FACEIT demos are standard .dem files and upload to GetReplay like any other. They sometimes fail to open in the CS2 client because of version or protocol mismatches — the online viewer parses them server-side, so they just work.
How do I fast-forward or skip rounds in a demo?
In the online viewer you jump to any round or event by clicking the timeline, and Smart Mode auto-skips the dead time between fights. There's no need for the in-game speed controls or typing tick numbers in the console.
What are the CS2 demo playback commands?
In-game you control demos with the demoui panel and commands like demo_pause, demo_resume, demo_gototick, and demo_timescale. GetReplay replaces all of them with simple on-screen controls and a clickable timeline, so you don't have to memorize any commands.
Why does my CS2 demo lag, stutter, or crash, and does watching online fix it?
In-game demo playback often lags or crashes due to hardware load, game updates, or corrupted ticks. An online viewer renders the match as lightweight 2D data instead of running the full 3D engine, so playback stays smooth even on a weak PC or a phone.
How do I see the kill feed and who killed whom?
Every kill is shown on the timeline and the scoreboard, and the kill and damage matrices let you see exactly which player killed which opponent, with what weapon, and for how much damage across the whole match.
Can I watch the enemy's point of view?
Yes. The 2D replay shows every player on the map at once, so you can follow any player on either team, including opponents — something in-game POV playback only lets you do one player at a time.
Is GetReplay free, and do I need to install anything?
GetReplay is completely free with no limits, and there's nothing to install. It runs entirely in your browser — you only sign in with Steam to keep your uploaded matches saved to your account.
What demo formats and sources are supported?
Any valid CS2 .dem file works: Matchmaking, Premier, FACEIT, ESEA, tournament/GOTV, and community or scrim demos. Upload them manually or enable auto-sync to pull your latest matches automatically.
How long does it take to process a demo?
Most demos are parsed and ready to watch within a couple of minutes of uploading. Once processed, the match is stored in the cloud, so you can reopen it instantly any time without uploading again.
Can I share a demo replay with my team?
Yes. Every match and key moment has a shareable link, so you can send a teammate or coach a specific round or clutch to review together — no need for everyone to have the demo file.
