[h2]What happens to the first Splitgate?[/h2]
We currently have no plans to shut down the servers or end basic support for the original Splitgate.

Keep an eye on our Discord for news about the future of the original Splitgate. We want to hear from you and your concerns, and you can voice them in our Discord server.

[h2]Why did you remove the ability to buy Splitcoin in Splitgate?[/h2]
Your purchased content in Splitgate will not transfer over to Splitgate 2. We felt it best to prevent new purchases of Splitcoin in case people had an expectation of it or their cosmetics transferring to the next game.

You can still spend your Splitcoin in the store in the original Splitgate.

[h2]What happens to items, and progression with the next game?[/h2]
We’ve spent several years building a bigger and better game with Splitgate 2. And that means characters, weapons, and the progression system are all going to evolve.

Skins won’t be able to transfer in the same way that you can’t peel the paint off your old house and apply it to the mansion you moved into.

We understand the time spent in acquiring these items. We want to reward your efforts and time in Splitgate, and we take that seriously. How we will do that is not decided at this time, but know that it is something we are focused on as we develop Splitgate 2.

[h2]What happens to my Splitcoin from the first game?[/h2]
Splitcoin will not carry over into Splitgate 2. You can still spend your Splitcoin in the original Splitgate.

Hello. Remember Splitgate? Well, its sequel, Splitgate 2, has just been revealed and is set to arrive in 2025.

If you missed the boat on the original, it was a pretty big thing for a hot minute a few years ago, thanks to being a fun shooter with gameplay that pretty much answered any questions you might have had about what would happen if a Halo game and a Portal game loved each other very much, went into a bedroom, and, er, cuddled a bit.

As detailed in a fresh PlayStation blog, Splitgate 2 is set to arrive in 2025, and will build on the original thanks to a beefier budget and a larger roster of developers.

1047 Games have announced Splitgate 2, sequel to the gambolling free-to-play FPS from 2021 in which you could blast people through wormholes. The new game brings back said wormhole-based carnage together with newly "faction-forward" teamplay, and if you want to know what "faction-forward" means when it's at home, I encourage you to stick your whole head into the below crackling cinematic trailer-vortex. I promise nothing bad will happen to it on the other side.

This event is designed to recognize and honor the amazing content and players that have made our community and game what it is today.

Over the course of the next few weeks, we’ll be asking for all of you to share your clips, best moments and favorite players with us across social media (use #SplittyAwards) and our Discord server. In return, we’ll be nominating some of the very best for the chance to win a physical trophy during a live awards show! The best part is, it’ll be you, the community, who chooses the winners.

The weeks-long festivities will culminate in a live-broadcast awards show where we'll announce our winners and present their awards. Following the event, we'll kick off a weekend of exciting events and giveaways that you won't want to miss. There may even be a surprise or two.
