How to Get a CSGO Loyalty Badge: Easy Step-by-Step Guide 2024
Getting the CS:GO Loyalty Badge is straightforward, and I'll show you exactly how to obtain this exclusive display item for your profile. This badge was introduced to reward long-time Counter-Strike players who purchased the game before it became free-to-play.
To get the CS:GO Loyalty Badge, you must have purchased CS:GO before it became free-to-play on December 6, 2018. If you meet this requirement, the badge was automatically added to your inventory - there's no need to complete any additional tasks or claim it manually.
The Loyalty Badge comes with several benefits:
• Prime Status in CS:GO • A special profile badge • Exclusive item drops • Access to Prime matchmaking
If you don't see your Loyalty Badge, here's what to check:
1. Verify your purchase date was before December 6, 2018 2. Check your CS:GO inventory 3. Ensure you're logged into the correct Steam account 4. Restart CS:GO if necessary
Unfortunately, if you started playing CS:GO after it became free-to-play, you cannot obtain the Loyalty Badge. However, you can still get Prime Status by either:
• Reaching Level 21 in-game • Purchasing Prime Status directly from Steam
It's worth noting that the Loyalty Badge is purely cosmetic and doesn't affect gameplay. However, it's a prestigious symbol that shows you're a veteran CS:GO player who supported the game before it went free-to-play.
Remember, the badge cannot be traded, sold, or transferred between accounts. It's permanently linked to the Steam account that originally purchased CS:GO before the free-to-play transition.
If you believe you should have received the badge but didn't, contact Steam Support with proof of your original CS:GO purchase. They can help verify your eligibility and grant the badge if you qualify.
