1047 Games of Splitgate fame is teasing something for July 18th. On its official Twitter, the developer posted a short clip of an individual with “RHINOK” emblazoned on their armor. Like the tweet, they say, “In three days, you’re mine.”
While it’s not official, the announcement is more than likely for Splitgate 2. Fans will likely remember the RHINO armor – this could very well be a variant of the same. The developer ended support for the original in September 2022 after spending much time reworking old systems and content. Instead of pursuing iterative updates, it wants to work on a sequel with “revolutionary, not evolutionary, changes” for fans.
Developed on Unreal Engine 5, the next Splitgate will also be a free-to-play shooter with portals. The original remains online, though it’s more or less dead, with 338 concurrent players on Steam at the time of writing. Nevertheless, with a lifetime peak of 67,724 players and a “Very Positive” rating (out of 111,367 user reviews, 91 percent are positive), it should be interesting to see how the sequel performs.
In three days…
You’re mine.
