What can we expect from Splitgate 2?
According to the developers, some elements of the sequel will be similar to the game's current version, and it will use the same portal mechanics as it does right now. However, the upcoming game will look and feel completely fresh and new. Splitgate 2 will be visually more enhanced as it is being made in Unreal Engine 5 and the entire game is created from scratch.
One of the biggest changes that players will see in Splitgate 2 is the introduction of factions or classes. Just like XDefiant or Overwatch 2, Splitgate 2 will also have faction-based operators, where each player will have unique roles to fulfill. Given Splitgate's portal mechanics and fast-paced gameplay, we can expect more innovation from players in Splitgate 2.
Furthermore, Splitgate 2 has an official companion app for mobile, where you can experience the game's lore through comics, collectible cards, and more. You can also earn rewards for Splitgate 2 by installing the app on your device.
Splitgate 2 will be a free-to-play title, and the game will be available on PC, PS5|PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One.
