PUBG: New State (stylized as PUBG: NEW STATE) is a futuristic style multiplayer online battle royale video game developed by PUBG Studios and published by Krafton. The game was released on November 11, 2021, for iOS and Android through the App Store, Google Play Store and Galaxy Store.[4][5] It is the second instalment in the PUBG Universe, as a sequel to PUBG: Battlegrounds and its mobile version.

Gameplay[]

In PUBG: New State, 100 players are deployed by jumping out of a plane on a remote 8x8 island called Troi, the game's main map, to collect supplies and battle each other as they fight to survive, with the last one becoming the winner. Troi is set in the year 2051 in the northern United States, with a futuristic environment, buildings, architecture and monuments.[6] New features include drones, ballistic shields, neon sights, combat balancing ability, reviving dead teammates, and "recruiting" downed enemies.[7] Vehicles include futuristic cars, buggies, motorcycles, speedboats and gliders.

PUBG: New State will feature interactive objects and structures with destructible windows and doors, and players can intersperse between a first person and third person perspective. It will feature weapon customization with different firing mode selections, grenade launchers, grips, sights, silencers, and other types of weapon accessories.

The game has secondary 4v4 multiplayer modes, such as team deathmatch, where up to four weapon loadouts can be selected. It also features an updated "Erangel" map from the original PUBG.[8]

Development[]

In February 2021, PUBG Studios, an internal division of Krafton (the company that publishes the game) announced the development of a game codenamed "PUBG: New State", a sequel and separate entity to PUBG: Battlegrounds and its mobile version, set in the near-future (year 2051) as a part of the PUBG universe.[9]

In July 2021, Krafton reported that the game surpassed 20 million pre-registrations on Google Play alone.[10] On 28 August the alpha testing concluded after running in 28 countries, and the developers implemented improvements and fixes based on feedback from participating users.[11][12] In September 2021, after pre-registration opened for iOS, the game surpassed more than 50 million pre-registrations combined on both Google Play and the App Store.[13]

According to Krafton, the game will include "state-of-the-art rendering technology" to bring enhanced graphics and lighting to a new generation of mobile games without affecting performance, and it will include a realistic and enhanced "battle royale", similar to PUBG: Battlegrounds.[14]

On January 27, 2022, a name change was announced, from "PUBG: New State" to "New State Mobile".[15] The change was subsequently made effective on all platforms.[16]

Release[]

The game was released worldwide on November 11, 2021, for both iOS and Android.[17]

Collaborations[]

Beginning with the game's first season, Krafton has collaborated with the Croatian car manufacturer Rimac.[18]
