How to get StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 Souvenir Packages

The StarLadder Budapest Major 2025 is on the horizon! The second Valve-sponsored Counter-Strike 2 event of the year will feature 32 teams in a highly competitive four-stage tournament. With the biggest CS tournament imminent, the Budapest 2025 Major hub is now live with the latest stickers, the Pick'Em Challenge and the latest souvenir tokens, packages and charms.

How to get the Souvenir packages?

The Souvenir packages are Major-exclusive containers featuring skins from collections tied to the active map pool (Ancient, Dust 2, Inferno, Mirage, Nuke, Overpass and Train). Every game played at the Budapest Major 2025 will drop a unique souvenir package based on the playing teams and the map the game is played on. The skins unboxed from these packages are referred as Souvenir Skins and feature the gold stickers for the two playing teams, the map and the Major. The Playoff exclusive drops also feature a "Highlight Charm."

There are two ways for acquiring a souvenir package: 

1. Redeeming a Souvenir Package using the token
   • You get Souvenir Tokens by upgrading the Pick'Em Challenge Championship Coin and/or Buying 3 with the Viewer Pass.
2. Directly buying the Souvenir Package at $2.49

These packages can be redeemed/purchased for any completed Major game. For the first three stages, the souvenir packages will be available immediately after the game's are completed. For the Playoffs, the special Highlight Souvenir Packages will be available a fortnight after the Major is complete.
