Themed loadouts are always a fun way to make your CS2 experience a bit more colorful, and give you a feeling of completeness. Given the new loadout system, completing one can also be way cheaper in the end. That’s why, to help you out with choosing the best purple CS2 skins, we’ve created a collection of our very own. Ready? Steady? We’ll start with the pistols.
Pistols: Best Purple CS2 Skins
Get ready for a purple pistol round with these skins:
CZ-75 Auto | The Fuschia is Now
Price: $20–$57
A simple and unfortunately overpriced skin, the Fuschia is Now’s name tells the story. Fuschia is close enough to purple, and… well… it is now. That’s why it ended up on our list. However, a nice, cheaper purple alternative will be the CZ75-Auto | Xiangliu.
Open cases with CZ75-Auto | The Fuschia is Now!
Desert Eagle | Ocean Drive
Price: $13–$150
The Deagle does not really have an overtly purple skin, so we have to go for the colorful Ocean Drive, which gets on the list thanks to its purple accents. It’s not much, but hey… it’s something!
Open cases with Desert Eagle | Ocean Drive
Dual Berettas | Flora Carnivora
Price: $0.40–$2.40
One of the coolest names of the bunch, the flora carnivora shows deadly plants in awesome colors, one of which is a heavy purple accent for the plants’ vines. This is a fun skin with a cartoony style that fits well with the overall team.
Open cases with Dual Berettas | Flora Carnivora
Five-SeveN | Flame Test
Price: $0.06–$0.20
As purple as it gets, the Flame Test is a simple, yet elegant skin for your eco-round/AWPing Five-SeveN adventures. With a purple coating and silver flaming accents, it may look a bit edgy, but still will fit beautifully into a purple set.
Open cases with Five-SeveN | Flame Test
Glock-18 | Moonrise
Price: $0.25–$1.30
One of the coolest cheap purple CS2 skins out there, the Moonrise shows a randomized cityscape, making virtually every skin from the bunch unique. The sky in the background is vividly purple, and the price tag makes it a must for the Terrorists’ basic pistol, with a matching UMP later on down the list.
Open cases with Glock-18 | Moonrise
P2000 | Acid Etched
Price: $0.30–$2.20
The P2000 doesn’t really have that big of a choice when it comes to colorways, and the Acid Etched gets onto our list mostly because it’s the only one to have clear purple (well-ish) accents. A colorful affair, it’s definitely… something.
Open cases with P2000 | Acid Etched
P250 | Vino Primo
Price: $1–$9
We’re not sure if this skin will age like fine wine, but it definitely recalls hits some classy vineyard beats, nicely tying into the feel of both the classic and modern versions of Inferno. If you like purple, and like feeling classy, this is a great choice.
Open cases with P250 | Vino Primo
R8 Revolver | Crazy 8
Price: $0.40–$2.20
Alright, first off, we don’t know why you’d be using a Revolver, but hey, to each their own. And if you’re using a revolver and looking to create the purplest of purple loadouts, you can’t really go wrong with the purple accents of the Crazy 8. With graffiti stylings on the handle and purple coating on the barrel, it’s gonna work well in your loadout.
Open cases with R8 Revolver | Crazy 8
Tec-9 | Sandstorm
Price: $0.20–$1.10
This was a tough choice between the vibrant purple accents of Tec-9 | Decimator, and the blander Sandstorm. In the end, we told ourselves “dudududu” and picked the Sandstorm. While not affiliated with the Darude song, it’s very purple (even if the purple isn’t overtly vibrant), and a bit sandy. A good choice to add some color to the Dust II palette.
Open cases with Tec-9 | Sandstorm
USP-S | Purple DDPAT
Price: $15
We never thought you could make a DDPAT skin an unironic part of a loadout, but hey, the purple DDPAT is actually interesting. Apart from looking like a glitched Cyberpunk 2077 load screen, it has a nice colorway and will fit right into your loadout. However, if you don’t mind less purple, and splashing a little cash, the USP-S | Neo-Noir is right there. Waiting. Asking to be bought. You can get the Souvenir version cheaper than the standard, by the way ($2.40–$11).
Open cases with USP-S | Purple DDPAT
Assault Rifles: Best Purple CS2 Skins
If purple is your favorite color and ARs your favorite weapon type in CS2, you’re in luck: there’s plenty of options to choose from when it comes to purple assault rifle skins. Here they are:
AK-47 | Neon Rider
Price: $21–$154
While the MAC-10 Neon Rider didn’t quite go purple enough, the AK-47 is very purple… and very cool. A skin so beautiful it even got its own mouse and mousepad collection, the Neon Rider is an absolutely iconic skin, and a perfect addition to our loadout. For more ideas, check out our post on the best AK-47 skins in CS2.
Open cases with AK-47 | Neon Rider
M4A4 | 龍王 (Dragon King)
Price: $7–$34
This Chinese-inspired skin may be less vibrant than most due to its ancient Chinese stylistic, but more than makes up for it with its beautiful art and unique theme. Feel like you need to defend the bomb site with the help of a Dragon? Get this one. For more options, check out our post on the best M4A4 skins in CS2.
Open Cases with M4A4 | Dragon King
M4A1-S | Decimator
Price: $11–$40
This one is honestly a vibe check. If you like the synthwave aesthetic, you’ll forgive the lack of “clear” purple, if not, you might be more willing to go for something like the M4A1-S | Hyper Beast. Either way, you can’t really go wrong with any of these skins. Visit our post about the best M4A1-S skins in CS2 for more ideas.
Open cases with M4A1-S | Decimator
AUG | Akihabara Accept
Price: $390–$3900+
If you like spending money, and you like anime, the Akihabara Accept is the perfect choice for your purple loadout. Its purple accents play well with the awesome drawing at its forefront. If you don’t like spending tons of money, you’ll have to make do with AUG | Navy Murano. And check out our post on the best anime CS2 skins if you like this one!
Open cases with AUG | Akihabara Accept
FAMAS | Pulse
Price: $6–$8
Not the only Pulse skin in this set, but to put it simply, it’s a skin with a nice purplish-pink finish, and it’ll do the job. If you want a different hue, FAMAS | Prime Conspiracy is also an option for around $90.
Galil AR | Sugar Rush
Price: $44–$75
If you have a sweet tooth and can’t afford an AK-47, the Sugar Rush is a fantastic skin to fill the void left by that Neon Rider. Cartoony, purple, and simply fun. We recommend this skin to anyone looking for an eco-ride.
Open cases with Galil AR | Sugar Rush
SG 553 | Pulse
Price: $1.85–$3.50
If you like the COD gun, this is a cheap option that will have you painting your screen red with a purple shooting stick.
Open cases with the SG 553 | Pulse
Sniper Rifles: Best Purple CS2 Skins
Snipe in style with these purple sniper rifle skins:
AWP | Lightning Strike
Price: $690–$925
Another expensive one, the Lightning Strike is certified C for Classic, and P for Purple. There’s not much to say here (unless you want snarky comments about Metallica’s Ride the Lightning), but if you’re looking for an affordable alternative, AWP | Neo-Noir is waiting.
Open cases with AWP | Lightning Strike
SCAR-20 | Splash Jam
Price: $10–$51
This one is pretty simple. It’s nice, it has a purple splash, and it will annoy anyone who sees that you’ve bought an autosniper in a competitive game, so while the skin might not be worth the price… your opponent’s frustration? Priceless!
Open cases with SCAR-20 | Splash Jam
SSG 08 | Turbo Peek
Price: $3.50–$16
Ever really wanted to put the Ferrari in Ferrari Peek? Well, this design features a racecar and a beautiful synthwave-inspired coat. It’s fun, it’s quirky, and it’ll definitely motivate you to try and get some force buy headshots outta nowhere.
Open cases with the SSG 08 | Turbo Peek
G3SG1 | Flux
Price: $6–$25
This one is simply perfect for a purple loadout. Nice, clear, with a dark purple hue that won’t be mistaken for pink by anyone. If you like BMing while you’re MMing, this autosniper skin is for you.
SMGs: Best Purple CS2 Skins
There aren’t that many purple skins for SMGs in CS2, but you do have some cool options to consider:
MAC-10 | Ultraviolet
Price: $2.40–$34
The MAC-10 has some beautiful skins, but unfortunately not a lot of purple in them. In the end, we decided that the Neon Rider was too pink to be considered purple and the Disco Tech and Fade didn’t quite hit the mark, leaving us with the Ultraviolet. If pink is what you’re after, though, check out our list of the best pink skins in CS2.
Open cases with MAC-10 | Ultraviolet
MP5-SD | Liquidation
Price: $0.06–$0.30
Another case of need rather than want, the Liquidation is mostly navy, but if you squint (or if, what’s likely given the demographics of the CS2 fandom, you’re a dude and have trouble telling colors apart), it works as a purple skin. So yeah, we’ll go with that.
Open cases with MP5-SD | Liquidation
MP7 | Neon Ply
Price: $1–$6
There was another, and perhaps more obvious choice here with MP7 | Skulls, however, in the end we decided to go with the more vibrant and more funky Neon Ply which has a lot of purple shining through on the back of the weapon. Ooh, and the new engine makes it shine as well.
Open cases with MP7 | Neon Ply
MP9 | Wild Lily
Price: $1500–$1800
You guessed it. It’s a collection thing. Upgrades and the like. But if you have way too much cash to spend, the Wild Lily is the best purple bet you got in the MP9 section, and one of the purpler skins in the game. However, if you need a cheap alternative, we’d recommend MP9 | Stained Glass, with its rather tiny purple accents.
Open cases with MP9 | Wild Lily
PP-Bizon | Space Cat
Price: $0.20–$1.10
While there’s not a lot of purple on this skin, there’s sure a lot of space cat, which more than makes up for the lack of purple. The purple accents only help the black-and-white kitty pop. It’s a lovely cheap purple CS2 skin and we love it.
Open cases with PP-Bizon | Space Cat
P90 | Death By Kitty
Price: $40–$60
Sticking with cats… The Death by Kitty isn’t really purple. I thas purple accents throughout, and that’s more than most skins for the P90 can say, and it features surprisingly cute drawings of cat skulls. A fun skin, with a slight purple tinge.
Open cases with P90 | Death by Kitty
UMP-45 | Moonrise
Price: $0.26–$1.10
Remember the Glock Moonrise? Same deal. Purple sky, randomized city skyline. Big moon. It’s a lovely skin that works well in many different loadouts, but perhaps fits the purple loadout best.
Open cases with UMP-45 | Moonrise
Shotguns: Best Purple CS2 Skins
Purple shotgun? Why the hell not! Here they are:
MAG-7 | Monster Call
Price: $0.20–$1.40
If you’re looking for Purple in Mag-7’s, this fishy skin has it right on the tip of the barrel with an epic PURPLE SHARK. The accent is subtle, but hey, beggars can’t be choosers, and we choose the Monster’s Call.
Open cases with MAG-7 | Monster Call
Nova | Exo
Price: $0.20–$1.30
We’re so back when it comes to the purple stuff. This skin is designed with purple in mind, this time, combined with white. This skin screams elegance, but also… well the word we’re all here for, purple. It’s a great choice!
Sawed-Off | Kiss♥Love
Price: $2–$11
This one is for the lovebirds out there. A cutesy anime skin, it would make a great Valentine’s Day gift for your CS2-obsessed love one. Or your weeby friend who just wants the best CS2 anime skins. The choice is yours.
Open cases with Sawed-Off | Kiss♥Love
XM1014 | Ziggy
Price: $0.40–$1.50
Another case of a colorful skin being the only one featuring purple, this autoshotty is fun, and a good choice if you want your inventory to become a bit more vibrant and interesting. Definitely go for this one.
Open cases with XM1014 | Ziggy
Machine Guns: Best Purple CS2 Skins
Machine guns in CS2 aren’t for everyone (some would say they’re for no one, but let’s not get into that right now). If you’re determined to make them work, do it in style with these purple(ish) skins:
M249 | Downtown
Price: $0.40–$1.40
It figures that the most useless weapon in the game would have one of the least controversial picks on the entire list. The Downtown is very purple, with the graffiti-inspiered skins showing multiple shades throughout. If, for some reason, you have this weapon in your loadout, it’s a great choice.
Open cases with M249 | Downtown
Negev | Anodized Navy
Price: $382–$554
Another case of “no purple, navy will have to do”, this Negev skin is a stretch, but hey, it’s the best one we’ve got. The good news is that if you want an all purple loadout, skipping the Negev is a great choice… aesthetically, tactically and financially.
Open cases with Negev | Anodized Navy
Gloves and Knife Purple CS2 Skins
Leaving the best (and most expensive) for last, as usual—here are the best purple skins for gloves and knives in CS2:
M9 Bayonet | Doppler Phase 2
Price: around $1500
We could’ve chosen the Ultraviolet here, but we felt that it’s just… not purple enough. After all, you don’t see most of the purple accents on the handle since… well, it’s held. That’s why, we decided to go with the purple accents on the blade of Phase 2 Dopplers.
Open cases with M9 Bayonet | Doppler
Driver Gloves | Imperial Plaid
Price: $290–$1000
Elegant gloves for an elegant killer, the Imperial Plaid looks royal, but at the same vibrant. A classy ending to our list. That’s really all there is to be said.
