The new State Mobile May update is live now on Android and iOS, game developer Krafton announced Friday. The list of new things added by the update includes a new map, a new weapon, a battle leveling system, an action feature, and a Survivor Pass. The new map is called Underbridge and can be found in the Round Deathmatch mode. A new battle leveling system is also added to the Round Deathmatch mode. The new gun introduced is a Designated Marksman Rifle (DMR). The update also brings the Survivor Pass Volume 7. The update also brings a host of bug fixes for the mobile game along with the update. There are a number of new additions in New State Mobile version 0.9.32. The new update brings a new map called Underbridge to the Round Deatchmatch mode. The map was designed for medium to long range battles and features two watchtowers so players can spot enemies from a distance. Care Packages will not appear in the new map, unlike the previous Arena map. Round Deathmatch mode is also getting a new battle leveling system in the update. In the new system, players can earn combat experience points based on the outcome of the team/round deathmatch, including win, loss, death, and damage. Players who abandon the match and their team mid-game will not be eligible for points. After reaching a particular combat level, players will receive a weapon customization kit for the Round Deathmatch preset. The new New State Mobile update also brings a new weapon to the game. The weapon, M110A1 is a new Designated Marksman Rifle (DMR) that uses 7.62mm ammunition. The developers claim it has the fastest bullet speed among DMRs in the game.” The M110A1 balances high damage with stable recoil and comes with a diverse set of equipable attachments including scope, magazine, muzzle and a cheek pad slot,” the developer added. Krafton also added a new action feature called Piggyback to the game. This feature allows players to piggyback on knocked down players and carry them to safety. Players can layer allies as well as enemies. While using the Piggyback action feature, players will not be able to use other actions. The May update also introduces the Survivor Pass Volume 7 with Paul Rubin of the New State faction in the mobile version of the game. Players will be able to earn Paul Rubin’s costumes and appearance by completing all story missions that take place every week. New State Mobile also receives many bug fixes in the latest update. Crash-related bug fixes include an issue where a smartphone would shut down while waiting to enter the starting island in Troi, another issue where the game would randomly close after skydiving, and the issue where the client would force closing when entering a vehicle. Other aspects of the game like gameplay, sound, and graphics also received bug fixes. Affiliate links may be generated automatically – see our ethics statement for details. Tech
