New State Mobile was formerly known by what title?

New State Mobile was formerly known as PUBG: New State.

Krafton and its PUBG Studios division announced PUBG: New State in February 2021 as a separate mobile battle-royale game set in the PUBG universe. Unlike the original PUBG Mobile, its setting looked ahead to 2051, with futuristic vehicles, equipment, buildings, and urban environments. The game was designed around the Troi map as well as a modernized version of Erangel.

The original title is a common source of confusion because it remained attached to the project through development, pre-registration, testing, and the worldwide launch on 11 November 2021. On 27 January 2022, Krafton announced the name change to New State Mobile, emphasizing that the game was a mobile-focused experience.

It was not the same game as PUBG Mobile, PUBG Mobile Lite, or Game for Peace. New State Mobile was a distinct installment, developed by PUBG Studios and published by Krafton, with features such as weapon customization, drones, ballistic shields, and recruitable downed enemies.
