PUBG Mobile Hunters Mode: Where Are AWM & P90? [Confirmed]

PUBG Mobile players diving into the latest 2026 Hunters mode update cannot find special weapons like the AWM sniper and P90 submachine gun in standard map crates or hunter coin shops, restricting high-tier armaments exclusively to unpredictable airdrops. According to verified reports from Reddit PUBGMobile, returning veterans highlighted that previous specialized location crates no longer yield these powerhouse firearms. Players attempting to purchase them via the newly introduced hunter coin shop have similarly hit roadblocks, as the inventory completely excludes top-tier sniper rifles and rapid-fire submachine guns. This significant inventory overhaul has left community members questioning whether developers intended to curb early-game dominance or if it represents an undocumented balancing hotfix across recent seasonal patches. Tactical adjustments are now mandatory for competitive squads relying on aggressive map-control strategies and compound sieges.
