What Awaits in the Open Alpha?

The Open Alpha features cross-platform play and introduces "Multi-Team Portal Warfare," a massive 24-player mode pitting three teams of eight against each other on the game's largest map yet. Expect new weapons, perks, and equipment alongside the core Splitgate portal mechanics that made the original a hit. New character classes (or factions) with unique abilities will also be present. 1047 Games emphasizes that player feedback has heavily influenced the game's development.

Splitgate 2's Open Alpha launches February 27th on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
