PUBG: New State is set in 2051, years after the original PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. Unlike PUBG Mobile which has been developed and published by Tencent, New State is an in-house game from Krafton.
Players will parachute into Troi, an 8×8 kilometers map to achieve victory. Some of the new features in the game include a weapon customization feature, combat rolls, drones, ballistic shields, and more.
