After months of speculation and thrills, we finally have the official BGMI Air launch date. KRAFTON India has confirmed December 10, 2026, as the release date for BGMI Air. The lightweight battle royale game has exceeded 14 million pre-registrations on the Google Play Store itself. It clearly shows how millions of users are awaiting the release of the lightweight version of BGMI.
To make things more exciting, the game publisher is planning exclusive pre-launch events in three Indian cities to test the game and give an early taste to the BGMI fans. As a result, KRAFTON will send invitations to select players to testing session events in three cities this month. If you want to be on the list, you should check out the details below on how to apply and have a chance of being the chosen one.

BGMI Air testing sessions for three major cities are as follows:
- Mumbai: November 20, 2026
- Delhi: November 22, 2026

How to apply
Here’s what you are supposed to do! Interested individuals are required to submit a short video explaining why they deserve an opportunity to experience the game before everybody else. KRAFTON says the length of the video must be between 15 and 60 seconds.
You can find the application link on BGMI AIr’s official Instagram account. Or, you can click here; you will be redirected to the official application page. There, you need to fill out the applications with accurate details. After that, your application will be reviewed by the BGMI Air team, and then shortlisted candidates will be invited to the testing session.
BGMI Air closed beta eligibility criteria
We would like to make it very clear that in order to attend the session, individuals must adhere to KRAFTON’s eligibility requirements. We have shared the BGMI Air closed beta eligibility criteria below:
- Applicants must be 18 years old
- Holds a valid government-issued ID
- A BGMI account in good standing
- Able to travel to their chosen location without financial assistance from KRAFTON
It is a relatively important factor for applicants residing outside these three cities but willing to travel and attend host cities. You are suggested to wait for official selection confirmation before making any travel arrangements. That’s what you should do if you don’t want to lose your money for no reason.
