RELEVANT REGION – FEBRUARY 25, 2021 – KRAFTON, Inc. today unveiled PUBG: NEW STATE, the newest battle royale title in a growing franchise. Developed by PUBG Studio, the creators of PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS (PUBG) and the pioneers of the genre, the title will launch as a free-to-play experience on Android and iOS in 2021.

“Given the fan support and massive success of the previous games, it is humbling to be able to build and introduce the next game in the franchise that revolutionized the battle royale genre worldwide.” said MinKyu Park, Executive Producer of PUBG: NEW STATE. “We want to build on that legacy by creating an experience that pushes the limits of mobile gaming. Watching our team come together to develop a global product has been an amazing experience and we are confident that it will speak to all audiences when it launches later this year.”

Built from the ground-up and optimized for mobile play, PUBG: NEW STATE will deliver the full battle royale experience straight into players’ hands. Leveraging and adopting the best-in-class gunplay made popular by the original PUBG game, players can expect the same combat experience that is easy to learn, but hard to master. Additionally, thanks to its state-of-the-art rendering technology called Global Illumination, the title features graphics that push the limits of mobile gaming so players can immerse themselves in a battlegrounds experience that is realistic and intense, but more importantly, stable and smooth.

In addition to taking the original experience that fans have grown to love, PUBG: NEW STATE adds several brand new features that evolve the genre. With a new in-game weapon customization feature, players can make various weapons their own by obtaining customization kits. These kits will transform weapons in different ways, such as performance enhancements, fire mode selection, and grenade launcher attachments. Players can also enjoy a variety of other new features, including combat rolls, drones, and a futuristic ballistic shield, among other things. Finally, players will also be able to take to the road and explore massive 8×8 open worlds with a variety of new vehicles.

Set in the near future of 2051, years have passed since the original game. Within this backdrop, players will be dropping into a brand-new battleground called TROI, where they will have the opportunity to discover how the universe has evolved. Players can explore various interactable objects throughout the unique environment, helping them come up with new ways and strategies to dominate the competition.
