PSA: The Budapest Major sticker sale is finally here

Valve didn’t confirm it in the latest CS2 update, so we’re here to tell you that the StarLadder Budapest Major sticker sale is finally live, cutting the cost of the sticker capsules by 75% and giving you a last chance to purchase them before they’re gone for good.

The StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 followed Austin’s lead and went with bordered stickers again, giving us embroidered stickers for the first time in Counter-Strike history. Prices for the stickers haven’t reached the highs of previous Majors yet, and it remains to be seen if this will change over time.

Budapest Major sticker sale goes live with no warning from Valve

Over a month after the conclusion of the event, Valve quietly put the Budapest Major sticker sale live as part of the CS2 Premier Season 4 update. You can now head in-game to buy the capsules for just $0.25 (€0.25/£0.18), a 75% discount from their full price.

When you’ve purchased the Budapest Major sticker capsule, you don’t have to open it right away. Many choose to hoard them in their Steam inventories for potential investments for years to come, while others look at them as a chance to get their favorite stickers at a bargain price.
