Within just a day of its launch, PUBG: New State has already garnered an impressive 1 million downloads across the globe. Krafton had launched the game yesterday and it appears to have already been a success, despite suffering from various bugs.

While many players were unable to login to the account and some were unable to boot the game entirely, the game still managed to cross the million download milestone on the Google Play Store. As of right now, the game is also ranked as number 1 in the Top Charts on the iOS app store. Prior to its release, the game had already garnered a whopping 40 million pre registrations on both Google Play and Apple App Store. So, it arrives as no surprise that the game is already a hit.

For those unaware, the New State title is a part of the popular battle royal franchise but is based on a more modern setting. But while a million people have already got their hands on the game, it has not been very well received. We had previously reported on many people facing issues with unresponsive games, server disconnects, and the infamous 38 percent loading screen. Some users couldn’t even boot the game, with the worst case scenario being a rare chance of the device bricking your smartphone.

While this might make gamers stay away from the game, Krafton has acknowledged this issue and has even offered an optional update to address some of these issues. At the moment, this optional update is only available on Android devices and changes the defautl graphics API settings to OpenGL ES for devices that do not support the Vulkan API. Furthermore, the update also fixes game crashes within Vukhan that occurred on certain devices. The company also fixed an issue where optimizing the game right after launching it would cause the game to crash while also offering some overall polishing and stability fixes as well.
