CS:GO's 9th operation: meet Operation Shattered Web!

November 18th, around 00:00 CEST, the CS:GO development team introduced a significant update to the game.

The price of the Krieg was increased to $3000, the price for the Galil and Famas were both lowered with $200, some map updates and general bug fixes were introduced, but most importantly, after a 2 year wait, Operation Shattered Web with its four new collections (Shattered Web, Norse, Canals and St. Marc) was released!

For the next 16 weeks, and possibly even longer than that, we will be able to enjoy weekly operation missions; Co-op, competitive, deathmatch, guardian and much more. Rewards include drops from either one of the new collections, exclusive agent cosmetics, graffiti's and more!

  • St. Marc Collection
  • Canals Collection
  • Distinguished Agents
  • Exceptional Agents
  • Superior Agents
  • Master Agents
The Operation Shattered Web Premium Pass is available in-game for €13,25 or the equivalent in your currency.

Pearlescent coatings:

We have added support for applying a pearlescent coating to weapon finishes. Pearlescent coatings use ceramic crystals to reflect and refract light, splitting it into different colors as the view angle changes. This effect can be used in a number of ways to subtly enhance your weapon finish or make drastic changes. The new Operation Shattered Web collections have some weapons with pearlescent coatings to illustrate some of the ways this new feature can be used. The Workshop Workbench has been updated to include this feature so you can experiment with adding this coating to a weapon finish. Using higher values will make the color bands tighter and more frequent and using negative values will flip the spectrum to start on the opposite end. It should be noted that this coating will shift the hue of your weapon finish so parts with no saturation, and therefore no hue, will have no pearlescent effect. We look forward to seeing what interesting applications you come up with.
