Splitgate 2 Announced for PC & Consoles in 2025

Splitgate 2 has been officially announced for a 2025 release on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox, continuing the innovative fusion of "Halo meets Portal" gameplay that made the original Splitgate a success. The sequel will introduce three unique factions, each adding distinct gameplay strategies and styles, enhancing the competitive first-person shooter experience. Splitgate 2 promises improved map design, crafted by professional level designers, and a more deliberate placement of portal walls, creating a more strategic and less chaotic play environment. The game will remain free-to-play with cosmetic microtransactions. Alongside the game, 1047 Games has launched a Splitgate 2 Companion App, which includes a free digital comic series and other interactive elements to build the game's lore and community engagement.

Splitgate 2 will feature three different factions, each with tailored gameplay styles, more strategic map design with deliberately placed portal walls, and professional level designers. The sequel aims to create a more thoughtful and less chaotic gaming experience while maintaining the core elements of the original game.

Splitgate, originally released in 2019 by 1047 Games, gained a substantial following with its unique combination of first-person shooter mechanics and portal-based movement. Inspired by games like Halo and Portal, Splitgate saw a massive surge in popularity, peaking at two million daily active users. Its financial success allowed 1047 Games to secure $100 million in funding, leading to the development of the sequel, Splitgate 2, which aims to compete with top shooters like Call of Duty and Fortnite.
