when working on my CSGO Skin evaluation site

I noticed there wasn’t a place where I could easily look up the release dates, and order of CSGO cases. Which prompted me to make this blog post

The most recently released case is the

Fracture Case

The table below orders all the CSGO cases by release date, and shows how many days it took for valve to release each case.

It also shows the day of the week, and date (in american timezone) that the case was added to the game.

Notes

– On 2 occasions there were 2 cases released simultaneously, which is reflected in the column named “Order”

– The heading “Wait Time” is the time it took for Valve to release the case, prior to the release date of the previously newest case.

(The community waited 114 days for the release of the Shadow Case, meaning for 114 days the Falchion Case was the newest case in CSGO.)

People seem to really like this blog post, so I have made a similar blog post about the

CSGO Operation Release Order which outlines similar things like duration and downtime between operations.

CSGO Case FAQ

When are new cases released in CSGO?

The average wait time between case releases is currently 78 days

Valve regularly shifts priorities within the company so its not possible to know the exact date when new case will come out – this can be seen from the CS20 Case that took 219 days to release in 2018, which is a much longer wait time than the average

Are cases available in every country?

Cases can be considered lootboxes or a form of gambling depending on your countries laws and online regulations. so far there are are some restrictions in European countries.

– Opening cases is not possible in Netherlands and Belgium

– Opening cases in France requires a P250 Xray to first view a cases contents, then purchased

– Also in France, Cases cannot be purchased from the Steam Community Market.
