Renting Skins From All Cases In CS2

Renting Skins From All Cases In CS2

Some time ago, specifically February 06, 2024 along with the A Call to Armsupdate, the Kilowatt case was added to CS2, which made it possible to “rent” all the skins in it except for the new Kukri knife. The change was treated as an experiment of sorts, which at the time still said little. Some suspected that it was an attempt to change the case opening model, so that any following Kilowatt could be rented and opened. However, things took a slightly different turn and a few days ago everything became clear.

What happened?

In short, Valve has added the ability to rent skins from any case. Such a step has sparked quite a bit of talk and debate about the need and purpose of such a move. There have been not only comments about the idea itself, but also speculation about potential changes in case prices and market movements. Such an update always significantly affects the Counter-Strike community.

Added ability to rent weapons from all previous CS:GO weapon cases.

Why?

Many say it's all to avoid unpleasantness with tightening anti-gambling policies around the world. Large markets such as Europe and especially China have taken steps in recent years to restrict online gambling, was Valve's intention to escape the problem? Possibly.

What's next?

To fully assess the impact of this move, we'll have to wait a bit longer to see the shape of the crate and skin market as a whole. The economics of CS are quite unique, and sometimes the reality is diametrically opposed to the anticipated reaction. We will certainly return to the topic after some time, when the innovation becomes the norm.
