WhilePUBG: New Stateis not without its critics, by all accounts the battle royale is very popular. It’s no surprise then that just over a month after launch, PUBG Corp. is preparing its first major post-launch patch forPUBG: New State. In newly released details about the patch, PUBG Corp. has confirmed new content including the addition of vehicles and a weapon.
To start with the new weapon, whichPUBG: New Stateplayers will be getting quickly acquainted with in-game, it’s named the L85A3. The L85A3 is an assault rifle unique among the weaponry currently in the game in that it has very low recoil. To balance it out, the L85A3 also has a lower overall fire rate compared to otherassault rifles inPUBG: New State. But when it hits, it packs a punch. The L85A3 has the highest overall damage out of all rifles that use 5.56m ammo.
