Hey, Splitfam! Get Ready for the Open Alpha

Hey there, Splitfam! We’ve got something super exciting lined up for you. From February 27 to March 2, we’re rolling out an Open Alpha preview of our latest project, Splitgate 2. This is your golden opportunity to dive into the action and experience what we’ve been cooking up. Trust us, you won’t want to miss this!

Experience Epic Multi-Team Portal Warfare

What’s on the menu? Get ready for some jaw-dropping 8v8v8 battles that are nothing short of colossal, all set against a massive new map. We’ve also packed in fresh arena maps, a slew of new weapons, and gear—plus, hundreds of improvements based on your feedback. And the best part? If you’ve got a Steam account, a PS5, or an XBOX Series X|S, you can jump in for free. Yes, you heard that right!

Portals: The Game-Changer

So, what makes Splitgate 2 stand out? Picture this: you’re an elite Ace, using your portal gun to teleport across the battlefield, outsmarting your opponents at every turn. Team up with friends, customize your weapons, and hone your portaling skills as you engage in epic showdowns. This isn’t just another shooter; it’s a fast-paced, portal-fueled experience that blends objective-based gameplay with unique maps and a wild arsenal of weapons.

Imagine dominating the battlefield with your portal gun—flanking foes, launching yourself into the air for those breathtaking aerial kills, and coordinating with your friends to control the Hotzone. It’s all about teamwork and strategy, and we can’t wait for you to jump in.

Listening to You: Community Feedback Matters

We’ve been all ears, and thanks to your feedback from playtests and online gameplay, we’ve made a ton of improvements. You wanted more action? We’ve shortened respawns and extended round times. Craving more portaling options? We’ve added additional portal walls to existing maps and introduced the Launch Portal—a clever combo of a portal wall and a launch pad that will send you soaring.

Curious about how we’re implementing your suggestions? Check out a message from our co-founder and CEO, Ian Proulx, or catch the latest Dev Talk with Ian and Nicholas Bagamian. We take your feedback seriously, and it shapes the future of Splitgate.
