Valve announces Souvenir Highlight Packages for CS2 Major

Counter-Strike 2 developers will add souvenir skins with keychains to the game, which will be tied to the best moments of the match. The innovation will be available only for the final stage of the upcoming Austin Major. The official announcement from Valve claims:

Just like previous Majors, you'll have the opportunity to claim a memento from the match of your choice. But this time, if you choose a playoff match, you'll receive an all new Souvenir Highlight Package.

Available exclusively for playoff stage matches, Souvenir Highlight Packages contain a souvenir weapon with an attached charm that features a video highlight from the playoff map you selected. Your weapon's description will include information about the highlight, and you can view the attached clip in your CS2 inventory, in Steam, or while spectating a teammate in-match.

A patch with the new feature will be released in Counter-Strike 2 shortly after the completion of the Major in the USA.

BLAST.tv Austin Major 2025 will be held from June 3 to 22, 2025 in Austin, Texas. The event will feature a prize pool of $1.25 million, which will be divided among 32 squads. The organizers previously published the seeding of the participants in the first round of the first stage of the competition.
