CS:GO Weapon Case Values

It has been seven years since the release of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive’s first case, an in-game cosmetics loot box for CS:GO weapon skins. While some cases retain value throughout the years, most have dropped to the lowest possible price on the Steam Marketplace of $0.03. Listed below are CS:GO’s dozens of cases, in order of release, with price fluctuations since release. The below Steam values are current as of the writing of this article.

CS:GO Weapon Case – August 14, 2013

The first case was released in August 2013. Since then, it’s been on a steady rise in value with some minor dips before reaching its current price of $19. There are currently only 141 cases for sale on the Steam Market, definitely contributing to its high price.

eSports 2013 Case – August 14, 2013

Released on the same day as the CS:GO Weapon Case, a portion of the profits from this case’s key sales were used in professional tournament prize pools. Since its release, the value has steadily increased with a current value slightly less than the CS:GO Weapon Case at around $16. There are currently 420 cases for sale, which makes sense given its lower price.

Operation Bravo Case – September 19, 2013

Just a month later, fans received the Operation Bravo case. Since then, it has consistently risen in price with 294 of them currently for sale starting at $21.02. This price is partly due to the case having the coveted AK-47 | Fire Serpent as part of its collection.

CS:GO Weapon Case 2 – November 6, 2013

The sequel to the Weapon Case came in the same year, using the same key. Its value did not hold up as well and there are currently 756 for sale at a low $2.07.

eSports 2013 Winter Case & Winter Offensive Weapon Case – December 18 of 2013

Chroma 3 – Apr 27, 2016

Gamma 2 Case – August 18, 2016

CS20 Case – October 18, 2019

Shattered Web Case – November 18, 2019

The latest case introduced a long-awaited operation, Operation Shattered Web, as well as four new knives in thirteen different finishes. It holds some value and currently sells for $0.86 on the Market.

Case Breakdowns

In terms of cases retaining the most value, Operation Bravo Cases soar above the rest at a current price of $21.02. As for newer cases, the Hydra Case is the winner at a price of $5.10. The biggest loser here is the Spectrum 2 case, not only being the most common case, but also the cheapest at the lowest possible Steam item price of $0.03.

At this point, there are 31 existing CS:GO cases released through Global Offensive’s lifetime. Most dropped in market value and are worth just a few cents. A few have gone up in value, but there are clearly specific items coveted enough by players, keeping the cost up. Perhaps Valve’s recent X-Ray Scanner change will influence Steam Market value for CS:GO gun skins and cases.
