AWP | Acheron appeared in CS:GO on September 3, 2018. It belongs to The 2018 Nuke Collection, dedicated to the eponymous map. This collection was introduced to the shooter in the “FACEIT London 2018 – How to Watch” update.

The skin is named after the river Acheron, flowing through the underworld realm of Hades. The receiver and buttstock of the sniper rifle are scattered with human skulls, each marked with a radiation hazard symbol. The overall gray and dirty blue color palette of the skin is interspersed with red spots reminiscent of blood.

The pattern index determines the placement of skulls on the surface of the sniper rifle. There are no valuable pattern variants for this skin.

Float Value of AWP | Acheron can vary between 0.00 and 0.83, allowing the skin to be obtainable in any exterior quality category. As the float value increases, the paint gets rapidly erased from the gun's surface. With heavy wear, almost all paint disappears.

AWP | Acheron is categorized as the “Mil-Spec Grade” rarity and is available in a souvenir version. The skin is moderately popular among CS2 players.
