Frequently asked questions
What skins are in The Genesis Collection?
The list above shows every weapon finish from The Genesis Collection that's currently in our catalog, ranked by popularity — Steam sales volume blended with on-site trade activity. The total at the top of the page is the live count.
Where do The Genesis Collection skins drop from?
The Genesis Collection was released on 2025-09-17. The Genesis Collection skins are tied to a specific source — typically a weapon case, an operation drop pool, or a map's souvenir drop list. The cheapest way to acquire any specific skin is almost always the open market, since case-opening expected value is rarely positive once Steam fees are included.
What is the most expensive skin in The Genesis Collection in 2026?
Switch the sort to "Priciest" to see the most expensive The Genesis Collection skin at the top — the default order is by popularity (real trade activity), so the most-traded skin from this collection is usually a mid-priced one. The most-expensive view updates continuously as the market moves.
Are The Genesis Collection skins a good investment?
Whether The Genesis Collection skins hold value depends on whether the source is still actively dropping. Once a case retires or a collection's drop pool is rotated out, supply caps and prices tend to drift up — but only for the rarer tiers within the collection. Cheaper Mil-Spec / Restricted finishes from the same collection rarely appreciate by much.
