1 min read
Summary
The open beta for Splitgate 2, the shooter that conflates Halo and Portal, has commenced, giving players the chance to try out new features ahead of the full launch.
The most notable new addition is The Lab, the map creator, which allows users to make and share custom maps and game modes.
Also available in the beta is Takedown, a team-based mode where respawn times are shorter upon killing an opponent, and longer when the player is killed; Stadium 2.0, a remade map from the original; and new 24-player onslaught maps for those who enjoy the chaos of larger battles.
There’s also Hunt the Devs, an achievement to find 1047 Developers playing with a special skin can be exchanged for a Dev Killer skin for a respective faction.
One more surprise is promised, to be revealed at 1.0 launch, with no release date set yet.
