The update dropped right before April Fool’s Day, and the content included is no joke. On 31.03 Valve released The Fever Case, together with a number of small tweaks and fixes, which were long overdue for the game.

But what exactly was introduced in the new CS2 update? Here’s everything you need to know, along with information about the new CS2 case!

What is the New CS2 Case?

There were a number of different features added with the update. The one thing that every player wants to know is what new skins were added in The Fever Case. The hype is real, though, since the new CS2 weapon case features a selection of some very impressive and expensive CS2 skins.

Like previous weapon skins that were added to CS2, The Fever Case takes full advantage of the Source 2 graphics capabilities, and the weapon skins feature some really impressive colorful designs. The highlight at the moment is a new entry to the popular Printstream skins in the form of a rare and expensive AWP variant.

The full list of the skins you can find inside the new CS2 case includes:

Fever Case Knives:

  • Nomad Knife, Paracord Knife, Skeleton Knife, Survival Knife

Covert Skins

Classified Skins

Restricted Skins

Mil-Spec Skins

What Else Was Added in The New CS2 Update?

Weapon skins are definitely the most important part of this update. However, it also came with a number of tweaks and changes, which deserve their own mention. Here are the most important features added with the new CS2 update:

New Armory Content

The armory update included a lot of content, but the most important feature added was definitely the new progression system introduced to the game, the armory pass. Players who purchased an Armory Pass (or two) earn Armory stars as they play and gain XP, and these stars can later be redeemed within the pass for rewards.

The rewards in the pass include many different items, such as a random CS2 sticker, CS2 charms, or rare skins available only within the pass. With this update, the XM1014 | Solitude became the new Limited Edition Item in the Armory, taking the place of the Desert Eagle | Heat Treated, which left the Armory in January 2025. Just like the previous skin, this one can be yours for 25 armory pass stars. Also, The Train 2025 Collection skins can now be obtained within the Armory Pass.

Inferno Changes

Inferno, one of the most popular active duty maps in the game, received some significant balance changes. Here are all the official Inferno patch notes:

  • Adjusted Banana to more closely match the size of the CS:GO version
  • Simplified background behind T ramp
  • Simplified view into Pit
  • Simplified background of Bombsite B
  • Removed step on sides of Arch hallway
  • Removed pixel gap at Coffin
  • Adjusted crates on steps up to balcony so players step up reliably
  • Adjusted or removed props throughout map
  • Adjusted Player and Grenade collision throughout map

Train Changes

Inferno wasn’t the only map to receive a significant overhaul. Train is a controversial map, mainly because it has some balancing issues due to its overall size and scope. That’s also why Train has received a significant overhaul in the latest updates. All of the Train changes added in the last patch include:

  • Fixed a bug where player shadows would render through windows above A main
  • Fixed some holes in the world
  • Simplified back wall by door to Z
  • Simplified background by upper B entrance
  • Shortened overhead roof rail in A site, to make it easier to throw utility into site
  • Replaced see-through grating on catwalk outside of Z door
  • Replaced see-through fences at top if Ivy with solid version
  • Simplified brick wall by Ivy
  • Fixed grenade collision on upper B arch

In Conclusion

While on the surface it might seem like a small update, all of the skins added will definitely shake up the market.
