The much-awaited M416 Glacier skin is finally making a comeback in Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI). Set to return through the Classic Crate on July 6, 2025, this announcement has excited players across the BGMI community. The developers, Krafton, confirmed the skin’s return via an engaging teaser on YouTube titled "ONLY OGS WILL GET THIS | BIG CLUES INSIDE | COMING SOON".
Why Is the M416 Glacier So Popular?
The M416 Glacier is more than just a cosmetic upgrade. It is one of the rarest and most loved weapon skins in the BGMI. What makes it so desirable is its seven upgrade levels, which include:
- Basic Appearance
- Elimination Special Effect
- Advanced Form
- Elimination Broadcast
- Hit Effect
- Final Form
- Loot Crate
Each level adds a unique visual or functional effect, making gameplay more immersive. Its icy-blue finish, smooth effects, and premium crate animations have made it a fan favorite since its first release. Many top streamers and esports players like Scout and Jonathan have showcased this skin in their gameplay—though even they reportedly had to open hundreds of crates (and spend lakhs of rupees) to unlock it.
M416: The Fan-Favorite Rifle in BGMI
The M416 is a go-to weapon for most BGMI players due to its:
- Ammo Type: 5.56mm
- Base Damage: 41
- Reload Time: 2.1 seconds
- Fire Rate: 0.085 seconds
- Firing Modes: Single / Auto
The gun is incredibly versatile and works well in both mid- and long-range combat, while also being reliable in close-range fights. It is widely available across multiple maps, including Erangel, Miramar, Vikendi, Livik, Karakin, and Nusa.
How to Get the M416 Glacier Skin in BGMI
If you’re hoping to add this legendary skin to your collection, here’s how you can try your luck:
- Launch the BGMI app on your device.
- Navigate to the Crates section and open the Classic Crate tab.
- Check whether the M416 Glacier skin is currently listed.
- If available, begin opening crates using either Classic Crate Coupons or UC (Unknown Cash).
Keep in mind, the M416 Glacier will only be available for three days—from July 4 to July 6, 2025. The chances of getting the skin are slim, so players are advised to save their coupons and UC in advance.
Final Thoughts
The return of the M416 Glacier marks a nostalgic and exciting moment for the BGMI community.
