How to obtain

The Dreams & Nightmares Case is a prime CS2 item which has a chance of being offered to players with prime status once per week as part of their weekly care package.

The weekly care package contains four items, of which one or more random weapon cases are selected from the prime case pool and/or rare case pool to be offered to the player. Only two out of the four items offered can be redeemed.

Since the Dreams & Nightmares Case belongs to the prime case drop pool it has much higher odds of being offered to prime players on rankup than rare case drops such as the original CS:GO Weapon Case.

Alternatively, it can be obtained by trading with other players, or purchasing from the Steam Community Marketplace and some third-party marketplaces.


Art Contest

Valve announced the Dreams & Nightmares art contest in July 2021 with 10 possible winning entrants receiving $100,000 USD from a prize pool of $1 million.

When Valve announced the winners of the contest they changed the maximum number of winning entrants to 17 all of which received $100,000 USD from an increased prize pool totalling $1.7 million.

This was the second CS:GO weapon case contest, the first being the CS20 Case from 2019 which was a celebration of 20 years of Counter-Strike. Similar to the CS20 Case, the Dreams and Nightmares Case also has a unique case gradient colour that deviates from the usual yellow community cases.
