Splitgate 2 aims for unique identity with new gameplay and community focus

1047 Games is developing Splitgate 2, aiming to create a unique identity beyond its original tagline of "Halo meets Portal." The sequel will feature a refined visual style, improved gameplay mechanics, and a class-based faction system to enhance player experience. The studio learned from the original Splitgate's short-lived success, recognizing the need for effective live-service management. They plan to implement regular updates and community feedback to maintain player engagement over time. Splitgate 2 will retain its signature multi-dimensional combat while balancing new abilities. The team has grown to 175 members, maintaining a startup mentality focused on innovation and community connection.
