PUBG New State Pre-registration
Pre-registrations for PUBG New State were made live back in February on the Google Play Store. The app is yet to surface on Apple’s App Store. The release date for the game is currently unknown, however, considering that the alpha testing is concluded, we could get to see the game launch soon.
PUBG New State game will be set in a dystopian 2051 where “anarchy rules as numerous factions battle each other.” The gameplay will include much more tools and features compared to its predecessor, like drones, combat rolls and more.
The company recently teased a new 8×8 map for the game called Troi. The map will come with multiple locations like Police Station, Tram Factory, City Hall, Exhibition Hall, Mall and more. We can expect the company to announce more maps in the coming days.
