It has been a bit more than half of a year since the release of the Recoil Case in July 2022, so no wonder CS:GO players were craving new weapon skins and stickers.

The Revolution Weapon Case includes seventeen fresh community-made finishes and skins for gloves from the Clutch Case as Rare Special Items. The most notable skins from the newest case are AK-47 | Head Shot, M4A4 | Temukau, and AWP | Doodle Lore.

The cyberpunk and anime aesthetics appear to have been a source of inspiration for the skins that Valve included in the new case. This container is filled with futuristic and anime-themed patterns performed in vivid colors. We have already picked the ten best skins from this weapon case and shared the gems in our article.

The developers also shipped the Espionage Sticker Capsule, which contains twenty-one stickers, each in a unique design hand-picked from the Steam Workshop submissions.

The capsule costs $0.99, and you do not need a key to open it. There are some attention-worthy stickers, such as Hidden Hero (Foil), Ethereal Gaze (Foil), and Infinite Triangle (Holo). Go ahead and get these pieces to adorn your weapons with!

Last but not least, Valve delighted Denzel Curry fans with a new Music Kit that contains hits from the artist’s “Melt My Eyez See Your Future” 2022 album, including “Walkin”, “ULTIMATE”, and more.

Music Kit | Denzel Curry, ULTIMATE costs $4.99. It includes an MVP anthem and changes the standard music for:

• Main Menu
• Round Start and End
• Map Objective
• Ten-Second Warning
• Death Camera

You can also get a StatTrack™ variant of the Music Kit | Denzel Curry, ULTIMATE for $7.99 so that it counts each time you become the Most Valuable Player of the round and shows the total number of MVPs you earned with that Music Kit equipped.

We expect at least one more weapon case to come out in 2023. However, Valve now releases fewer new cases as opposed to previous years.

• 2013-2014: six cases each year
• 2015-2016: five cases each year
• 2017-2020: three cases each year
• 2021-2022: two cases each year
• 2023: one case (so far)

Even though the game has been out for over 10 years, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is still one of the most popular PC games. On February 11, CS:GO reportedly broke a record for the number of concurrent players by reaching 1,329,219, according to Steam DB.
