Splitgate: Arena Reloaded – The Comeback You Didn’t See Coming!

Welcome Back to Splitgate!

Splitgate 2? Nah, let’s hit the reset button! Say hello to Splitgate: Arena Reloaded, coming your way on December 17! It’s been a rollercoaster ride since the original Splitgate hit the scene, but 1047 Games has decided to take things back to basics, and we couldn’t be more thrilled!

What’s New and What’s Gone?

So, what’s on the menu for this revamped shoot-fest? First off, they’re ditching the factions and character abilities that tried to turn Splitgate into something it never was. Instead, it’s all about you, your trusty gun, and those crazy portals that can make you feel like a video game magician—zip here, snipe there, and all without the extra fluff.

Josh Watson, the design guru over at 1047, explains their plan as “keeping what worked and scrapping what didn’t.” With that mantra, they’re bringing a breath of fresh air back to the arena shooter scene by focusing on what makes it fun. Expect a career progression system, sweet player stats, intense leaderboards, alongside a shiny reworked ranked mode. Plus, five brand new maps and four shiny new weapons to boot—heads up, they’re adding LMGs into the mix!

Ah, the nostalgia! Catching the whiff of mid-2000s multiplayer magic with lobbies full of frenzied players is enough to make anyone nostalgic. Gone are the days of getting stuck with some lame character class before the match; it’s all about who can aim better and move faster. Splitgate is bringing back those glorious bragging rights, and frankly, we can’t wait!

And before you ask—nope, the price tag isn’t changing either! Splitgate: Arena Reloaded is staying free-to-play, so get ready to jump onto your PC, Xbox, or PlayStation when it drops in just a couple weeks!
