Valve recently added a way to rent skins in CS2 instead of buying them. You no longer have to buy the skins to try them out, which is all fine and dandy—but how does it work?
You can now RENT skins in CS2??
Here's how to rent skins in CS2.
Yes, skin renting in CS2 became available on May 23rd with a major patch. Instead of trying your luck and seeing what you would get from a case, you can choose to rent all the skins from the case, except knives or gloves, for a single week.
Rented skins cannot be traded or sold and expire after the seven day period. If you're not sure you want skins from a particular case, this is a good way to try them out.
