In NEW STATE Mobile, 100 players are deployed by jumping out of a plane on a remote 8x8 island called Troi, the game's main map, to collect supplies and battle each other as they fight to survive, with the last one becoming the winner. Troi is set in the year 2051 in the northern United States, with a futuristic environment, buildings, architecture and monuments. New features include drones, ballistic shields, neon sights, combat balancing ability, reviving dead teammates, and "recruiting" downed enemies. Vehicles include futuristic cars, buggies, motorcycles, speedboats and gliders.

NEW STATE Mobile features interactive objects and structures with destructible windows and doors, and players can intersperse between a first person and third person perspective. It also features weapon customization with different firing mode selections, grenade launchers, grips, sights, silencers, and other types of weapon accessories.

The game has secondary 4v4 multiplayer modes, such as team deathmatch, where up to four weapon loadouts can be selected. It also features an updated "Erangel" map from the original PUBG
