Updates are a major part of a battle-royale game as players tend to get wearied with the same content. Krafton never shies away from adding new updates in the game at frequent intervals and this now goes true for PUBG New State. Prior to the PUBG New State January update, the developers had issued some minor updates to fix bugs and miscellaneous issues and now the futuristic game is finally moving to a major update.

A new game mode called the BR: Extreme (64) will be available on the Troi map. While this mode will retain the battle royale (BR) concept, the mode will only feature 64 players and take place for 20 minutes. The playable area will be restricted similar to the Arcade matches in PUBG Mobile. Players will start the mode with a P1911 handgun, 1 smoke grenade, 300 Drone Credits, and fully charged boost meters. As this will be played in an extreme mode, players need to be quick with their reflexes.

The P90 SMG weapon was earlier unavailable in the game unlike the previous versions of PUBG. However, PUBG New State January update will add this SMG to the care packages. It will use the 5.57 ammunition which will be given at the drone store. Apart from that, this SMG will come with an attached suppressor.

Weapon Customization Changes

With the new update of PUBG New State, players will be able to use the flash hider or a compensator with DP-28 once it is customized with the help of a customization kit. Players can also add the Lightweight stock to M762 while increasing the ADS bullet speed. However, both of this will reduce weapon stability.
