Splitgate 2 is "going back to beta" with the original shutting down as 1047 Games have layoffs https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/07/splitgate-2-is-going-back-to-beta-with-the-original-shutting-down-as-1047-games-have-layoffs/
https://www.europesays.com/us/2058/ 1047 Games, developers of Splitgate 2, layoff ‘a small group of valued staff’ #1047Games #featured #Splitgate2 #Technology #UnitedStates #UnitedStates #US
The #Splitgate2 CEO has fallen to "blame a former employee" levels of scapegoating. And the mod team is still purging all mentions of his fascist pride display at #SummerGameFest
So #Splitgate2 has a definitely fascist lead developer, and moderators are now banning anyone who doesn't stop talking about it from the community.
Sucks to have already spent money on it, after waiting years for it to come out.
I'm not much of a gamer myself, but someone I know worked on this game and it's FREE! so I'd like to promote SPLIT GATE 2
It's like Portal mixed with an arena shooter, and just came out yesterday. It uses the Unreal Engine 5, and is available on the newer Playstations and XBoxes, as well as STEAM.
And again, it's FREEEEEEEEEE
Here's the trailer:
Splitgate 2 now works on Desktop Linux with the anti-cheat updated https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/05/splitgate-2-now-works-on-desktop-linux-with-the-anti-cheat-updated/
Splitgate 2 gets a Beta on Steam, works on Steam Deck but not other Linux systems for now https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/05/splitgate-2-gets-a-beta-on-steam-works-on-steam-deck-but-not-other-linux-systems-for-now/
#Valve needs a new rule on #Steam
If your game works on #SteamDeck you may not intentionally break the game on #Desktop #Linux.
Incidental Breakage is fine; Checking if you're running on a SteamDeck to determine if you should launch, should be incredibly banned.
