Krafton introduced a new battle royale mobile contender, PUBG: New State, into the PUGB series back in 2021. Early testing showed promise that PUBG: New State was a worthy competitor to its sister title, PUBG Mobile. After landing on Android and iOS, there were a few early bumps in the road. Thankfully Krafton isn't here to let your tires go flat; the company has big aspirations for PUBG: New State, especially now that the game has received a few updates to even things out while kicking off its first season.

Plus a new gun, fresh customizations, animation improvements, and much more
PUBG: New State is the new kid on the block. It's extremely similar to PUBG Mobile, but it offers a futuristic theme with improved graphics, amongst many other improvements. Well, even though you'd think Krafton would want to differentiate itself from Tencent's game, the latest patch for New State is rolling out today, a day after PUBG Mobile received its own update. Despite the confusing update cycles for both games, New State indeed offers a host of improvements and content with January's 0.9.23 patch. The most significant addition is the new Battle Royale: Extreme mode, which lasts 20 minutes, but fans can also expect a new weapon, new gun customizations, and new actions/animations. Plus, the latest Survival Pass (Vol.3) is now live.

Release day woes mar the launch of Krafton's latest battle royale
At the beginning of 2021, Krafton announced that it was working on a mobile version of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds called PUBG: New State. After much testing over the last year, we learned last month that the battle royale was finally ready for prime time, with the official release set for November 11th. Well, that day is today, and so PUBG: New State is now available on the Google Play Store as a free-to-play download. So far, player reviews are middling, with plenty of complaints sprinkled throughout the current 3.7 rating, covering issues like random server disconnects and lag, though to be fair, it is release day, as these kinds of problems tend to be expected.

Krafton is set to globally launch PUBG: New State next month
PUBG: New State was announced by Krafton back in February, and it isn't a replacement for PUBG: Mobile. It's actually something new that will exist alongside the old game. Of course, New State offers the same style of gameplay since it's a also battle royale title, but it will bring new graphics, new content, a new anti-cheat system, along with new locales set in the future. Until today, it was unknown when the New State would be officially released, but thanks to a fresh announcement from Krafton (along with a lengthy media shocase video, which can be viewed after the break), we now know PUBG: New State will land on Android and iOS on November 11th, across 200 countries. In anticipation of this launch, there's a final playtest scheduled for October 29th through the 30th that will be available in 28 countries.
