A skin taken from the tale of Jack

The skin draws on the fairy tale Jack and the Beanstalk. According to its authors’ description, a beanstalk climbs along the weapon and Jack stands above the clouds, facing the castle in the sky. The renders can be seen on the creators’ Workshop page.

On the stock, the goose that lays golden eggs becomes the Counter-Strike chicken. The authors add that the sun, its rays and the golden eggs have a metallic finish, and that the main parts of the artwork hold up better to wear as the float rises.

What changed in the new version

What was updated in V2? * New custom normal-map * Updated roughness-map * Textures updated and glitches fixed

The creators list a custom normal map, which sets the apparent relief of the surface, and an updated roughness map, which controls how shiny it looks. They also say they reworked the textures and fixed display glitches. The page does not show a before-and-after comparison.

The new page is dated October 11, 2026 and shows an update the following day. The first version, M4A4 | Beanstalk, was published on August 6, 2026 by the same creators. Its description now points to the new page.

Where the concept stands

The page carries the Fairy Tales category, the weapon theme of the Call II Arms-ory call for submissions that Valve published on July 16, 2026. Our Fairy Tales article from October 8, 2026 looks at this theme and other concepts (French version).

In the Valve announcements we checked on October 12, 2026, including the CS2 update notes of October 8, 2026, this concept does not appear: no selection, no release, no price. Be wary of any listing that claims to sell this skin; our CS2 trade scam guide explains that trap.
