PUBG: New State will see you dropping into a brand-new battleground called TROI. This futuristic area will feature distinctive landmarks, unique interactive environments, and a landscape that requires strategising and new ways of thinking to dominate.
What are the new features in PUBG: New State?
PUBG: New State features a brand new weapon customisation system that allows you to transform weapons in many different ways. Different customisation kits can provide enhancements such as fire mode selection, grenade launcher attachments, and much more.
