Overview

  • 1047 Games will keep Splitgate 2 online in beta while overhauling progression, portal mechanics, monetization and game modes.
  • The developer has reduced an unspecified number of roles to shift personnel and funding toward the sequel’s ground-up rework.
  • Servers for the original 2019 Splitgate will go offline next month to lower operating costs and free up resources.
  • The studio pledges extensive playtests and player surveys to guide updates and ensure community input shapes the redesign.
  • Splitgate 2 will remain playable through its planned Chapter 3 update even as the core rebuild progresses toward its 2026 target.
