Splitgate 2 pushes the series in new directions but will this please fans of the original? Ian Higton finds out in this preview based on the Splitgate 2 Alpha.
My friends and I all LOVED the pick-up nature of SG1. We’re all adults with busy lives, so hopping into a ~5 minute casual match was just so easy. And the casual nature made it feel like we could have success without “grinding” the game. I guess that is explicitly not the intent of SG2.
Nope it’s not…
Another live service with a never ending treadmill of rinse repeat and spend on micro transactions…oh and be sure to play as long as possible for engagement metrics.

Yeah it bums me out to see the shift. I hope it’s more accessible than it seems on the surface, SG1 really clicked with me for a while there.
