The AKM Glacier is ready to Return to the Game. If you've been waiting for this legendary glacier skin, here's BGMI AKM Glacier Release Date.

❄️ Limited Time Anniversary Event

The AKM Glacier Skin is available in the Classic Crate as part of the anniversary celebration from June 28th to July 2nd, 2026.

Excited? Yeah, me too. The AKM Glacier is one of the legendary gun skins, and it pairs perfectly with the M416 Glacier. I have the M4 Glacier in my inventory, though I’m disappointed I never got the AKM Glacier skin from the classic crates. Still, the good news is that the AKM Glacier is making a comeback next month, in July. Let’s find out on which day it will be released and how long it will remain available in crates.

AKM Glacier Return in BGMI

AKM Glacier Classic Crate

AKM Glacier Skin is currently available for only 4 days, from June 28th to July 2nd, 2026, as part of the Anniversary Celebration.

BGMI is celebrating its 5th year anniversary on July 2, 2026. During this celebration, the AKM Glacier skin will drop in Classic Crates. The AKM Glacier will be released on June 28, 2026, and on that same day the Mummy Suit crate will also return.

Yes, it’s been officially confirmed by Krafton that you’ll be able to open AKM Glacier crates starting June 28. However, it’s still not known how many days this skin will be available. You can assume it’ll be available for two or three weeks at most.

Save Classic Crate Coupons

Complete all the missions in the event section to collect Classic Coupons, and don’t spend them before the event starts. I’ve saved over 200 coupons specifically for this Glacier Skin, so you should start saving now too.

Purchase UC at Discount

If you’re thinking of spending a bit of UC on the classic crate for AKM, then purchase BGMI UC now while the UP UP Event is live. The BGMI UC Up event will end in a few days, and you won’t get a discount on UC purchases until the next UC Up event.

But there’s no need to worry, the next UC Up event will be coming in mid-July. Then you’ll get a second chance to collect extra bonus UC.

Is the AKM Glacier Worth it?

In the game, glacier skins aren’t just cosmetic items; they’re the oldest legendary gun skins, and players have strong emotional attachments to them. If you ask any old player, you’ll get the same answer: how special glacier skin is to them and even to me.

The AKM Glacier is considered a premium, rare category weapon skin because it’s not something you can easily get your hands on. The AKM is already a god gun in close combat, and if you have its Glacier skin, it’s the icing on the cake.

AKM Glacier Return Date FAQs

Is the AKM Glacier really coming back?

Yes, on BGMI 5th Year Anniversary, the AKM Glacier skin will be added to the Classic Crate.

Can I Get the Glacier Skin for free?

Yes, if you have a Classic Crate coupon, you can open crates for the Glacier Skin for free. However, it depends on your luck, but this time many players will have the chance to get this AKM glacier gun skin without spending UC.

What is the right time for me to open the Classic crate?

If you open the crates early in the morning, you have a better chance of getting skins. I’m sharing this based on my experience because spending 10 UC on a lucky spin and opening crates early in the morning helps me collect more mythic items.
