30-day changes compare observed daily lowest totals, excluding Steam. A dash means there is not enough verified history; no prices are estimated.

Lowest total price across tracked marketplaces, buyer fees included; cost to open adds the $2.49 key. We may earn a commission when you buy through a marketplace link on this page. Every price is the total you would actually pay, and marketplaces we don't partner with are compared the same way. How BO5 compares skin prices

How to get cases in CS2

You can get cases three ways: as a weekly drop when you level up, from the Armory, or by buying them on a marketplace. Opening any case needs a key, which costs $2.49 and is only sold by Valve.

Weekly drops

Leveling up each week unlocks a care package, and one of its choices can be a case from the active pool.

The Armory

Armory passes earn credits that can be spent on some cases and collections, such as the Fever Case.

Marketplaces

Every case is tradable, so you can buy one from another player on a marketplace or the Steam Market.

Keys

Each weapon case needs its matching $2.49 key from the in-game store. Terminals don't use keys.

CS2 case odds

Every CS2 weapon case has the same odds: 79.92% Mil-Spec, 15.98% Restricted, 3.20% Classified, 0.64% Covert and 0.26% for a knife or gloves. That works out to one knife or pair of gloves in about every 385 openings.

Valve's published odds per CS2 weapon case opening
RarityChance per opening
Mil-Spec79.92%
Restricted15.98%
Classified3.20%
Covert0.64%
★ Knife or gloves0.26%

These are Valve's published rates for weapon cases. Terminals use their own mechanics, and Valve hasn't published their odds.

CS2 case prices and trends

BO5 stores daily lowest totals for CS2 cases. Each period appears only after enough verified daily observations have been collected.

CS2 case questions

Are CS2 cases discontinued?

No. Cases are still in the game, five containers drop weekly, and every case can still be opened with a key. What has stopped, for now, is new traditional cases: the last was the Fever Case in March 2025. New skins have come through terminals and the Armory since.

Can you get cases for free in CS2?

Yes, through weekly drops. Each week, leveling up your profile lets you pick a reward from a care package, which can include a case from the active pool. You still need a paid key to open it.

Do you need a key to open a CS2 case?

Yes. Every weapon case needs its matching key, which costs $2.49 from the in-game store. Terminals work differently and don't use keys.

Do some cases have better odds than others?

No. Every weapon case uses the same published odds. What differs is the value of what's inside, which is why expected return varies so much from case to case.
