Krafton has just recently launched PUBG: New State, which has already become a hit worldwide. Now, the company is planning on taking the franchise to other fields of media as well, with a planned Exclusive web series and music being in the works for the Indian market.

The South Korean publisher behind the popular battle royale title has announced earlier today (26th November 2021) that it has partnered with Sony Music India to bring a new “Bad Boy x Bad Girl” from Indian artist Badshah into the game. Furthermore, this collaboration has also kicked off a new dance challenge, with Krafton also announcing a new PUBG New State based Web Series that is titled New State Chronicles, which aims to expand the game’s presence in the region.

Notably, the song from Badshah, which also features playback singer Nikhita Gandhi, will be used in sponsored content like streams and promotional videos. Similarly, Krafton is also bringing in popular Indian rapper Raftaar to introduce an exclusive song for PUBG: New State. This special song is written by Raftaar and will highlight the game’s new features, which would likely serve as the anthem of the game in India.

Talking about the web series, New State Chronicles is a three part serise that will feature celebrities and influencers like Awez Darbar, Kaneez Surka, Kubbra, Mortal, Mr. Faizu, Raftaar, Rannvijay Singha, Rohan, Scout, The Great Khali, and The Sound Blaze. This web series will premiere in India next month, although, the actual release date has yet to be announced. Krafton will also be hosting a dance challenge that will have winners get Google Play Store Gift Cards worth up to 5,000 US Dollars or 3,74,500 INR.

A few days ago, on 11th November, PUBG: New State was launched for Android and iOS devices as a new battle royale game set in the future. The game has been popular as it has now crossed 10 million downloads on the Google Play Store.

This isn’t surprising as the game had over 55 million pre-registrations prior to its release. It has also claimed the #1 spot in over 165 countries, including South Korea, the United States, Germany, India, and Saudi Arabia, among others.

This new PUBG: New State game has been launched globally in around 200 countries. The game’s publisher Krafton has not yet announced the number of downloads taken place on the Apple App Store for iPhones and iPads.

The game had faced some post-launch issues including server crashes and smartphone bricking. However, the developers seem to have addressed and fixed those issues with a couple of updates. Several users had reported on the day of the game’s launch about the unresponsive loading screens, inability to join a match, and more.

Krafton has put in several new features into the game to make it more appealing and exciting for battle royale players. For starters, the storyline is based in the year 2051 and thus the players have access to futuristic weapons and vehicles.

Earlier this year, the company had launched Battlegrounds Mobile India which is available exclusively for Indian users. The game recently crossed 50 million downloads in the country before it was released on iOS.

PUBG New State records over 1 million downloads in just one day

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.

[Update: Also bricking phones] PUBG New State is here, but its unplayable right now

Earlier today (11th November 2021), PUBG: New State had finally launched after being teased months prior. However, while the launch was highly anticipated, it might have been a bit rushed by Krafton as the game seems unplayable at the moment.

A number of mobile gamers keen on getting in early on the fast paced and modern setting of the title were disappointed to find that they are unable to play the game. While the issue isn’t universal, various users have complained about the new game. During launch, many games see day one patch updates that fix server issues or other problems and it seems that the New State isn’t any different. Being unable to connect to the server is one of the most common issue as of right now.

Notably, the issue was even acknowledged by the game’s official Twitter account that assured that it is “looking into resolving this issue swiftly.” We can expect the server issue to be fixed by the end of the day but there are also other problems that seems more complicated. As per the official “Known Issues” list shared on PUBG New State’s official website, some Xiaomi smartphones are unable to run the game entirely.

In other words, some Xiaomi users cannot boot the game and are even shown an error that redirects them to a webpage. This site answers some FAQs related to the game crashing. It even adds that “You have been disconnected from the game due to abnormal behavior.” The issues don’t end there as those that managed to get into the game are facing unresponsive controls, random server lags, unresponsive UI, and much more. Keep in mind, its still day 1, and we can expect fixes to be one their way.

Alright.#PUBGNEWSTATE has bricked my device already.
Those on Android 12, be a bit careful I'd say.

Update: We advise that you stay clear of the game for now since reports have surfaced of the game bricking smartphones. Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings) has just tweeted that the game bricked his Android 12 device, while other gamers also took to Twitter to share a similar incident. 91Mobiles downloaded the game on a couple of smartphones as well, with varying degrees of damage. One handset was soft bricked with possibility for recovery while another has been hard bricked.

PUBG New State is now available to download for Android via Google Play Store

Jeet — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 05:40:46 +0000

PUBG: New State, which was announced a couple of months back, is now finally available to download through the Google Play Store for Android smartphone users in India. While it has been launched for Android, the iOS version is yet to get released.

The PUBG: New State game can now be downloaded through the Google Play Store but on the Apple iOS Store, it is still listed for pre-registration. We expect it to be available for iOS users also sometime later today.

As for the requirements, the Android users will need a device with at least 2GB of RAM and Android version 6 or above. For iOS users, the requirement is an iPhone or iPad running the iOS version 13 or later. For Android devices, the size of the game is around 1.4GB while for Apple devices, it is about 1.5GB.

For those who are unaware, PUBG: New State is a battle royale game developed by PUBG Studios and comes a few months after Battlegrounds Mobile India aka BGMI. While the BGMI game is exclusive to India, PUBG: New State has been released globally.

Similar to PUBG Mobile and BGMI, the game is free to play and features a modern/urban setting for its intense battle royale-style gameplay. It appears that the company is recycling resources from the original PUBG Mobile game but has added a futuristic twist with game elements like futuristic vehicles and weapons.

Krafton has called its creation “one of the most realistic and technologically advanced mobile games to date” and has promised “a strong and consistent pipeline of new content, global service support, and anti-cheat measures” after the game gets launched.

PUBG: New State to launch globally on November 11, new trailer released

After much speculation and wait, the latest PUBG: New State press release has given the mobile battle royale game a November 11 release date. The game promises to bring a near-console experience to your mobile and will be offered in 17 different languages. It will be going live for both iOS and Android in more than 200 countries on the said date. A final technical test will be performed from October 29 to October 30 beforehand though.

Developed by PUBG Studios, the game will be set in the year 2051 and will be following a futuristic, Sci-Fi theme. It’s very much set in the same universe as PUBG Mobile but is an evolution of the original game. Its story revolves around the fictitious town of Troi in a post-apocalyptic world where society has broken down and divided into factions. This Troi town will be the primary map of the game and will be joined by three more maps including the franchise-staple Erangel.

Based on early gameplay and leaks, PUBG: New State appears to be recycling resources from the original PUBG Mobile game but has added a futuristic twist with game elements like futuristic vehicles and weapons, which have been fused with traditional elements.

The South Korean game company has also revealed that they will be actively communicating with players to provide stable game services. This will be done by establishing nine global service hubs.

Extensive anti-cheat measures have also been put in place and Krafton will be banning the use of unauthorized programs, emulators, and even keyboard and mouse. Player sentiment and feedback from the community will be closely reviewed, analyzed, and reflected through in-game updates.

As of right now, New State has successfully completed its second Alpha Test in 28 countries back in August. Recently, Krafton had also made pre-registrations live for the Indian market, which is a major mobile gaming market. In other words, the impressive registrations number likely arrives due to its pre-orders for the game going live in the region.

Unlike the standalone BGMI (Battlegrounds Mobile India), PUBG: New State will be available on both Android and iOS at launch. Similar to PUBG Mobile and BGMI, the game will also be free to play but will feature a modern/urban setting for its intense battle royale styled gameplay. For those interested in registering, you can check out the app store listing for Android and iOS on Google Play Store and Apple App Store, respectively.

Minkyu Park, Executive Producer of PUBG: NEW STATE stated that “We’ve been able to achieve this level of success because of fan enthusiasm globally and their belief in PUBG Studios work.

We are devoting all our resources to ensuring PUBG: NEW STATE meets the expectations of our fans, both in terms of entertainment and stability.”

For those unaware, New State is a different title from the company’s massively popular vanilla PUBG Mobile game. This version of the game arrives with new maps, which have a more urban setting over its classic battle royale variant that seen great success. One of the new maps include Troi that comes with a number of new weapons and vehicles that are different from the known cars and bikes you’ve seen in PUBG Mobile.

Furthermore, another notable inclusion is the new weapon customization feature that allows players to modify their weapons inside a match with various attachments. With New State, Krafton is bringing back its franchise in India, after PUBG Mobile got banned in the country back in September 2020. While the company has already launched an exclusive Indian version of the game (BGMI), the new game will carry the official ‘PUBG’ moniker.
