After months of hype, PUBG New State launched globally yesterday on Android and iOS. While many players dove into the futuristic battle royale, others reported persistent server issues and connection problems.
Unforeseen challenges emerged post-launch for Krafton's latest title. Thousands of players struggled to connect or encountered in-game glitches. Despite a preemptive delay due to server instability, problems persisted. Krafton issued a public apology, assuring fans they're working diligently on resolutions.
Originally set for 4:00 UTC (9:30 IST for Indian players), the game surprisingly appeared early on Google Play and the App Store. Excitement quickly turned to frustration as "unable to connect to server" errors flooded in.

Responding to global player reports, Krafton delayed the launch by two hours, but issues continued due to an unidentified bug. Maintenance began at 5:30 p.m. UTC, extending to 9:00 p.m. UTC and beyond, disappointing eager gamers.
In an official statement, Krafton addressed the community:
"The overwhelming positive feedback from pre-registration set high expectations. We fully acknowledge that we fell short yesterday and failed to deliver the seamless experience promised. We sincerely apologize."
Krafton also confirmed that players unable to claim pre-launch rewards can retry via the events section once logged in.
