Krafton has finally released their PUBG New State worldwide. However, the launch of the game may not have been as smooth as players may expected. Shortly after official release, players started reporting multiple issues from far and wide. In fact, Krafton ultimately had to delay the game’s release by two hours in order to fix server issues.
The game maker took to the official New State Twitter handle to announce the delay. Being set in the year 2051, it is more of a futuristic take on PUBG. Being one of the most anticipated mobile games of 2021, it goes without saying that the mobile gaming community has definitely been rooting for it.
