Splitgate 2 revealed the launch date of its free open beta test, May 22, 2025. The game developed on Unreal Engine 5 is coming on PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5|4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One.
Splitgate 2’s Open Beta will include over 25 weapons, more than 10 game modes, a revamped portal system called Rift, and infinite maps, though it is not clear yet what the developers mean by ‘infinite.’
Earlier this year, title’s developer 1047 Games shared an infographic revealing some of the alpha test’s numbers, stating that users played more than 500,000 games, opened 20 million portals, discovered one rooster, killed about 59 million enemies and saw about a million BFB bonks, where BFB is essentially a baseball bat version of Doom’s famed BFG.
The first title in the Splitgate series, the free-to-play multiplayer shooter developed by 1047 Games, has achieved over 22 million downloads across PC and console platforms since its initial release in Early Access mode on PC in 2019. The game’s popularity surged notably in mid-2021 following its beta release on consoles, during which it amassed over 600,000 downloads in its first week.
