XM1014 | Irezumi

Origin Story

The XM1014 Irezumi features a custom-painted snake design atop a gold base, inspired by traditional Japanese tattoo art. This Mil-Spec shotgun skin, released on February 7, 2024, as part of The Kilowatt Collection with the A Call To Arms update, stands out for its detailed artwork and premium Gunsmith finish. It offers a visually appealing option from the first CS2 weapon case, making it a desirable choice for players seeking an eye-catching shotgun skin. The prominent snake motif and metallic gold base give the weapon a bright, distinctive appearance in first-person view.

Drop Chance

XM1014 | Irezumi is Mil-Spec, a Blue-tier skin, less common than base collection drops. From the Kilowatt Case: approximately 11.42% per opening (roughly 1 in 9). The 79.92% Mil-Spec tier rate is split across 7 Mil-Spec skins in the case. StatTrak versions drop at ~1.14% from the Kilowatt Case (about 1 in 88).
