Developer 1047 Games has announced it will be “ending feature development” on its acclaimed free-to-play sci-fi shooter Splitgate in order to shift its focus to creating a new game set in the same universe.
Splitgate – which has been described as “Halo meets Portal” in some quarters – made quite the splash last year. Despite having been around on PC since May 2019, an open crossplay beta for Xbox, PlayStation, and PC proved so popular that 1047 Games elected to delay the game’s multi-platform early access launch in order to better accommodate its surge in popularity.
1047 Games has continued to build on that success in the months since, most recently launching Splitgate’s beta season two in July. However, the developer has now said it will be “ending feature development” on the game as a result of what it seemingly considers to be insurmountable legacy issues.
