The CS2 Armory Update added a series of brand-new features to the game. All of these features are now part of the Armory, which received its own section inside the game. When you click on it, you can see lots of different categories of items that you can purchase with Armory credits.
To start receiving such credits when you play Counter-Strike 2, you must first buy the Armory Pass. It costs around 15 EUR and you can own up to five of them at once.
Then, when you compete in CS2 matches, you gain credits for each of them. The total number of credits that you can accumulate per Armory Pass is 40. You receive the first one immediately. The rest of them accumulate over time.
Once you have enough Armory credits, you can start buying Armory cosmetics. This guide shows what can be purchased. Here are all the categories of items that you can buy using Armory credits.
