Splitgate Season 1

Splitgate Season 1 is live!!!


We have spent the last 3 months working harder than ever to bring you this update. Without our awesome community and all of the feedback none of this would have been possible. You guys have pushed us to improve the game every day (we've added 50,000 lines of code since last update and a lot of new content), and we are so excited for you all to see what has changed.

CONTENT
  • Splitgate - Arena Pass: We have added a new progression system in our Arena Pass. Progress through over 100 levels throughout Season 1 to earn some sweet, SWEET cosmetic gear!
  • Races: We created Splitgate "Races," where you can compete against your friends and global leaderboards by speedrunning the maps in these timed trials.
  • Daily and Weekly Challenges: Complete these daily and weekly challenges to gain XP towards your progression level and your Arena Pass level. Do you have what it takes to tackle these challenges every week?
  • New Weapon: You can now use the BFB as a one-shot melee weapon in Splitgate! Run around the map with a GIANT BAT whacking enemies into a swift death.
  • New Map: Abyss is now playable in Season 1! Abyss is an underground cave with a large open center. Since combatants fight underground, even the Rocket Launcher cannot be heard form the surface. Fight with caution. If you parish at Abyss, you may never be found.


Improvements
  • Overhauled Graphics: We improved the graphics in every area of the game, from inspecting your skins to playing on the new maps.
  • Improved UI and custom crosshairs: We improved the look and feel of Splitgate. From the main menu to the in-game UI, Splitgate now looks better than ever! You can now have more control over your crosshairs by selecting the design and color from our templates.
  • Performance Updates: Splitgate is now more optimized than ever. Hop into Splitgate for some smooth gameplay now for Season 1.


Redesigned Matchmaking and Ranking System
  • We have revamped our matchmaking/ranking systems to veer from the 1-50 Ranking system of old. We have moved to an ELO-based system which will more accurately match players based on skill. This will allow both new users and dedicated users to have better games while playing Splitgate.
