Splitgate’s portal-hopping sequel announced for next year
Splitgate isn’t dead yet. On Thursday, developer 1047 Games revealed a cinematic trailer for Splitgate 2, a revamped version of the free-to-play multiplayer shooter, which uses the same portal mechanic that made the game so fun the first time around.
When Splitgate 2 launches in 2025, it will come with some notable upgrades. The developers say they’ve “rebuilt everything from the ground up” in Unreal Engine 5 and also added a new faction-based system. “There will be familiar elements, but on the whole, Splitgate 2 should look and feel completely fresh from the original,” 1047 Games says.
While the Splitgate 2 trailer doesn’t feature actual gameplay, it does give us a peek at the Splitgate world 1047 Games is focused on building. There’s a new mobile companion app you can download on Android and iOS that has free comics, rewards, and other features. I have to admit, I didn’t expect much from a sequel after the end of the first Splitgate — but the new focus on lore has me looking forward to getting back into the game.
The Splitgate sequel will remain free to play and will be available on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC. 1047 Games says it will have more details to share about the game in August.
