Krafton has announced that the name of its latest battle royale game PUBG New State will be changed to New State Mobile. With this announcement, Krafton has confirmed that New State is a mobile-focused experience. The developer has already changed the name of PUBG New State’s website and social media handles to New State Mobile. This suggests New State may never come to PC or consoles, with cross-platform support like Fortnite.

NEW STATE has always been a mobile-focused experience, and through the transformation to NEW STATE MOBILE, we are bringing this to the core. We always appreciate your support, and please look out for upcoming content updates later this year.
Krafton says, “NEW STATE has always been a mobile-focused experience, and through the transformation to NEW STATE MOBILE, we are bringing this to the core.” While speaking to Dot Esports, a Krafton spokesperson has said, “New State has always been a mobile-focused experience, so we’re just leaning into that. While players can still get the intense and competitive gameplay of PUBG, this version really is tailormade to be the ultimate mobile experience.” The developer is planning several changes coming to New State Mobile this year. Krafton has already started upgrading the game with the brand-new BR: Extreme mode.
The BR: Extreme mode was added in the latest New State Mobile update. The mode takes place on a small battlefield on the Troi map, which changes randomly every match. Each match lasts for 20 minutes only and features 64 players. Each player spawns with a P1911 handgun, 300 Drone Credits, and fully charged boost meters. Along with these, 2 Care Packages will be dropped at random locations in the beginning of every match.
