Splitgate 2 Alpha Highlights Expanded Modes and Gameplay Changes

The highly anticipated sequel balances its portal-based combat with new features and modes, sparking both excitement and concern among players.

Splitgate 2 introduces a variety of new game modes, including 8v8v8 multiteam battles and class-based gameplay with factions, to expand player options.
The core portal mechanics remain central to the gameplay, though some modes reportedly de-emphasize portals, raising concerns about the sequel's focus.
New quality-of-life improvements, such as streamlined portal commands and faster, smoother movement mechanics, enhance the overall user experience.
Factions bring unique abilities and loadouts, creating new strategic opportunities and accommodating different playstyles for players of varying skill levels.
While the expanded content aims to improve player retention, early feedback suggests that the increased variety may dilute the game's original appeal.
