Released in 2013 as part of the Operation Bravo Case, Boreal Forest was obtainable through case drops and is associated with Operation Bravo, which introduced many woodland-themed skins.

The skin features a woodland camouflage pattern with shades of green, brown, and black, mimicking a forest environment to provide concealment.

Boreal Forest is well-liked for its tactical look and is considered a classic, often sought after for its natural, camouflage design.
