Currently (due to the new patch, 2.3.0) there are 7 rarities. Common (grey), which is only recolors. Uncommon (yellow), thpically recolors with different patterns etc... Rare (green), these actually change the character model, such as roadrage trapper. Very Rare (purple) currently this is the highest rarity of purchase-able cosmetic, they can give killers new effects, such as mud medusa for the hag. But what about the other 3? Well, we have event, which is a gold color, and are obviously given out at events. This where things get interesting. We also have ultra rare (pink) there are 0 cosmetics of this rarity. And Artifact (magenta) I believe that these are also not implemented, but im curious to see what they will be in the future. Eill we get cosmetics that can change a killers mori? Or maybe their "clean weapon off" animation? Idk what its gonna be, but im very excited to find out. What do you think?

    There actually are some Ultra Rare cosmetics in the game, though they're not from the store. That rarity is used for exclusives if I'm remembering correctly. As for why the options are there in the store when those rarities aren't sold, it's just so you can equip clothing you already had in the store to mix and match things to see what you like. I don't know about the magenta one though, I wasn't aware that was a thing. If it is something new, I think a mori animation would be cool. Maybe there could also be new emotes for survivors using this new rarity.

    Hopefully Artifacts are rare cosmetics awarded in game.

    Survivors: While looting a chest, there's a slim chance of finding a cosmetic. If they do, they must escape in order to keep it.

    Killers: While searching a locker, there's a slim chance of finding a cosmetic. They must received Ruthless Killer victory to keep it. There's obviously more lockers than chests on a map, but if they were to just farm lockers then everyone would likely escape--hence no cosmetic. (;

    ... or somethin' like that

    Seems like you guys are all newcomers, more or less.

    Artifact is a very old rarity, it's a shade brighter than the Ultra Rare pink and is used for the Streamer exclusives (those that weren't in the Charity Case and the original versions of those that were).

    Been playing for over a year on PS4. There is no real reason to just now toss that category onto consoles unless they plan on releasing more similar exclusives in the future. But who knows.

    Honestly thought "artifact" was referring to the original prestige awards, the "entity touched" skins. Guess not though...

    Hopefully we might be able to get cosmetics with devotion points or something like that

    I know for sure that Face of Omega Wraith skin is artifact rarity. Created for youtuber Ohmwrecker (like Huntress mask)

    I feel that would promote swf even more - cause they would have the highest chance of escaping and the highest chance of denying the killer cosmetics. Plus survivors having to compete for chests while the killer is wandering around looking for lockers instead of what he's supposed to be doing - I would think the huntress would be finding all the cosmetics, she's constantly opening lockers.

    I've actually been playing since December of 2016. Hoped I'd be better at the game after all this time, though I still make a lot of silly mistakes. I wasn't aware that streamer cosmetics had their own rarity, I always thought that they were just Ultra Rare whenever I saw them in videos. That's interesting to know. Thanks!
