The new year has arrived and Krafton has released the first look of a new map coming to PUBG: New State in 2022.
In a Happy New Year message, the developer announced that it is working on a new battleground that will launch in mid-2022. While details about it have not been disclosed, it appears to have a rugged terrain filled with vegetation and mountains.
Krafton will also release two maps, Kiki and Tiger, to PUBG: Battlegrounds soon. According to the images, the new map doesn't look like any of these.
Currently, PUBG: New State has two battle royale maps, the custom Troi and an upgraded version of Erangel. Both are 8×8 kilometers in size. Krafton did not reveal what the size of the upcoming New State map will be.
The developer also announced that it is working on a lot of "new content" that will be released in 2022. The first of these will be released in the first two months of next year. More details will be published later.
PUBG: New State was released over a month ago, but players have been complaining about connection issues, optimization issues, and bugs in the game. Various updates have been released to fix these issues.
Krafton promised players today that one of their main priorities for next year is to continue making updates and improvements to the game. The developer said it aims to do this through "open and transparent communication" with players.
Krafton has also released a new year gift that can be claimed through January 10. Players can use coupon code “HAPPYNEWSTATE” to get six Chicken Medals and three Royal Chest Tickets.
