Splitgate 2 will officially launch on June 6, after what must've been a successful beta. It'll be available on a whole bunch of platforms, including PC via Epic, Windows and Steam. The game will also be playable on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. It's free, with optional in-game purchases.
As the name suggests, this is a sequel to the extremely popular 2021 arena shooter. Both the original and its sequel offer a fun gameplay hook. Players can create and jump through portals to surprise enemies or to traverse locations quickly. Otherwise, it's a first-person shooter, so imagine a nice combination of Quake with, well, Portal.
There's a new trailer to commemorate the official launch, which zeroes in on the story. Developer 1047 Games promises there will be a "metric ton of maps, weapons and modes" on June 6. It has also announced that any progression made during the beta period will carry over to the full release. Version 1.0 will include a map creator and "so much more."
To that end, the dev team says there's "one surprise left in store." This will be revealed at Summer Game Fest, so stay tuned. The first Splitgate was a legit phenomenon, with over 10 million beta downloads before it was officially released.
