Valve pushed a CS2 update on March 11 and the headline is the Dead Hand Collection, a new cosmetic drop featuring 17 community-contributed weapon finishes. The real draw for skin collectors is the 22 all-new gloves included as rare special items, accessible through the Dead Hand Terminal as a weekly drop.
On the map side, Dust II gets a pixel gap fix on the door Outside Long. Small, yes, but pixel gaps on Dust II have a long history of being exploited at the highest level, so credit where it's due for closing it. Alpine also receives an update pulled from the Community Workshop, keeping the map current with its latest version.
This one is light on gameplay changes, so if you were hoping for balance tweaks or competitive fixes, this isn't that update. The Dead Hand Collection will drive most of the attention here. Full patch notes below.
