P250 | Apep's Curse

Origin Story

The P250 | Apep's Curse, released on April 25, 2023, as part of The Anubis Collection, draws inspiration from Egyptian patterns and materials. Its design features ornate Egyptian motifs and a stylized serpent, referencing Apep, the mythological adversary of Ra. This Classified pistol is a lore-heavy sidearm within the collection, appreciated by collectors who favor Egyptian aesthetics and full-set Anubis loadouts. It stands out for its detailed Gunsmith execution, offering a thematic counterpart to other skins in the Anubis Collection.

Drop Chance

P250 | Apep's Curse is Classified, a Pink-tier skin, rare with strong collector demand. It has appeared across 5 tournament packages, most recently the Copenhagen 2024 Anubis Souvenir Package, Paris 2023 Anubis Souvenir Package, and Shanghai 2024 Anubis Souvenir Package.


Souvenir Packages are awarded to viewers watching live Major matches on the corresponding map, not opened from cases, so Valve doesn't publish per-skin drop odds. Each package contains one item from The Anubis Collection, with rarity tiers drawn on a weighted system that heavily favors common grades, meaning Classified skins like Apep's Curse are a small fraction of total package contents. There is 1 other Classified skin in the collection competing for the same drop slot. New copies only enter the market when a recipient chooses to open their package, so supply trickles in over time even after the tournament ends.
