Splitgate returns to console and PC once more on May 22 with a very content-packed open beta.
Splitgate 2 is following the same path as XDefiant, fighting an endurance battle with Call of Duty as the new CoD Killer. Will it last?
An astounding misinterpretation of the creators quote. This isn't a "CoD-killer". Splitgate plays nothing like CoD. The dev doesn't even say he's trying to compete with CoD, and in fact it's the opposite. In the quote this writer uses IN THE ARTICLE, he says he's tired of playing the same FPS style every year. Obviously he's trying to offer an alternative, not directly compete.
Yeah, the author here is taking a lot of liberties here. Proulx was obviously saying that people needed different types of games than the draw of the annual CoD. He was not saying it was a CoD Killer, only something that wasn't trying to recreate what CoD is doing.
All true👌 But when he directly targets CoD in his speech at SGF and then goes on sayin "Our game is f awesome" what would the community think of it? CoD is boring ours is good; there ya go, another game trying to beat CoD. They just need a better PR guy who doesn't pick fights with other FPS games/developers.

Splitgate 2 is a free-to-play shooter that knows it's in a crowded market, but that isn't stopping developer 1047 Games from taking a chance.
