Back in beta until 2026.
Splitgate 2 answers the questions that if a tree falls in the forest and everyone moved out two months ago, does it make a sound? And the answer is yes, as long as the press is willing to cover it. Needless to say, Splitgate 2 started out its launch weak and only deflated from there to a point where developer 1047 Games is pushing it back into beta.
Until 2026.
So we’re going back to beta. We’ll be heads down until early next year, rebuilding major parts of the game to capture the spirit of what made Splitgate special. That means reworking progression from the ground up, adding more portals to our maps, simplifying monetization, refocusing on classic game modes you’ve been asking for, and more, which we’ll share soon.
To show how serious they are about putting the work into Splitgate 2, 1047 Games also announced a number of layoffs of the people whose labor would be put into rebuilding the game for a better relaunch. Because what you really want when the situation calls for all hands on deck is less hands on deck.
Additionally Splitgate 1 is set to go offline with a possible offline mode or peer-to-peer being integrated at some point in the future.
