First sold is the date the case first appeared on the Steam Community Market, which for the earliest cases is later than the day they dropped in game. Skins column: weapon skins, then the knife and glove pool. Five older cases use their own keys; their key price is the market listing, and the rest use the $2.49 store key.

What the prices tell you

At the 10 November 2026 snapshot the cheapest case to open is the Kilowatt Case at $2.60 all in, and the dearest is the CS:GO Weapon Case at $104.53, because it needs its own player-sold key instead of Valve's $2.49 one. 24 of the 42 cases work that way. The best expected return on the table is the eSports 2013 Winter Case at +12%; the full ranking, and how each figure is worked out, is on the case odds and expected value page.

What a case drops is the same lottery every time: 79.92% Mil-Spec, 15.98% Restricted, 3.20% Classified, 0.64% Covert and 0.26% for a knife or gloves. A skin you pull is worth what someone will pay for it, and Steam keeps 15% of that, which you can work out with the Steam fee calculator. If you land a wear you want to keep, the float checkershows where its float sits inside the skin's range.

Cases are also where trade-up contracts start. Ten skins of one rarity make one of the next rarity up, and five Covert skins make a knife or gloves; run the numbers in the trade-up calculator or the knife trade-up calculator before committing.

FAQ

How many weapon cases are there in CS2?

This page lists 42 weapon cases, from the original CS:GO Weapon Case of 2013 to the newest release. Sticker capsules, souvenir packages and other containers are not weapon cases and are not included.

How much does it cost to open a CS2 case?

You pay for the case and for a key. Keys sold in Valve's store cost $2.49, so a case that sells for under a dollar still costs about $3 to open. A few older cases use their own keys that are only available from other players, and those cost more.

What is the best CS2 case to open?

Judged on the maths, the one with the highest expected return, which is the average value of what drops divided by what it costs to open. That ranking is on the case odds page. Every case returns less than it costs on average once you include the key.

Where do the case prices come from?

The lowest live Steam Community Market listing for each case, taken from the skins.com public price feed (snapshot 10 November 2026). Old cases with only a handful of listings can swing a lot from one day to the next.

Which CS2 case is the cheapest to open?

Whichever has the cheapest case plus the $2.49 key. Cases themselves cost from a few cents to a few dollars, but the key is the same for nearly all of them, so the cost to open barely changes between the cheap ones. The table on this page is sorted newest first; the case odds page sorts every case by cost and by return.

What are the chances of a knife or gloves from a case?

0.26% per opening, about 1 in 385, the same for every weapon case. Which knife or glove drops is then picked evenly from that case's rare special pool.

Can I try a case without spending money?

Yes. The case simulator opens any of these cases with the real contents, Valve's disclosed odds and current prices, and keeps a running tally. Nothing is spent or won.
