What will happen to the current system of “drops” in splitgate? Currently it’s a reward system for completing challenges… in the past it was also based on xp levels.
2 changes: 1. the new free infinite battlepass that goes live on the 15th will have drops unlocked every 5 levels after level 100. 2. duplicate drops will reward XP/splitcoin depending on the rarity.
Do you take interns
Also will there be seasonal events/ new skins or is development stopped entirely
Not often, but we do make exceptions for exceptional people!
Do you have any plans for community servers when support ends?
We don't have any plans because we aren't planning on ending support any time soon.
Along with more community maps being featured in matchmaking, will we see older maps be reintroduced into the current game? The blocktober maps comes to mind, and though they were not polished high quality graphics, it would add to the variety of maps available to play.
No current plans at the moment beyond custom maps
Whats going to happen with SPS? Also whats in store for the smaller updates?
SPS is here to stay for the remainder of 2022. 2023 is still up in the air, but we hope to have some form of esports and community events. Smaller updates after the 15th will contain bug fixes.
Few questions: - Will the new game be an Arena Shooter like Splitgate? - Any new mechanics in the new game that you can share? - Campaign or PvE Mode? - Any Seasonal Reward for the Infinite Battlepass?
Nothing to share at the moment but I will say if you like Splitgate, you will love the new game!
When will this new game be ready? Can you give us a rough estimation?
We have very ambitious goals for the new game and it is a massive undertaking. Timing is still being finalized, but don't expect it to come out in 2023.
Will the current Splitgate game be taken down when the new Splitgate Universe game is released?

Roughly when should we expect a new project from 1047 and will you guys find a publisher this time or stay independent again?
Thanks for the questions Arrrash! The new project timeline is still being finalized but the game will not release in 2023.
Most likely independent. We've got our own great marketing and PR team :)
Two questions:
You've mentioned several times that you went on a hiring spree since last year's investment. How many of you are there now?
You mentioned in the town hall that you want to be the "next Apex, or even Fortnite". Does this mean a likely departure from the arena shooter genre?
Edit: Third question: Was the town hall recorded and will it be available to watch/listen to later on?
are you gonna leave abyss as unoptimized as it is or will that also be fixed in the upcoming september update?
can we expect to see a griddy emote in the next game mocapped by cardi soldier himself?
will the september update fix the ingame hand textures not matching the model textures on skins like Shogun, Sable, Misty and Peppermint Bard? please tell me the red patches are fixed
We are actively looking into abyss performance. No guarantees it will get improved but we do have some ideas as to what is causing it to have worse performance for some people.
LOL ;)
September update will not fix hand textures not matching, but we do have a number of other fixes coming.
What will happen with the MVP program? What would be an incentive to join the program at this point in time? Are you currently accepting applications for the MVP program?Thank you!
The MVP program is here to stay! If anything, it is more important than ever because the MVPs and community are what will keep the game staying strong going forward until the next game comes out. Yes, we are accepting applications still.
Will cosmetics transfer to the next game
Still figuring out what we can and can't do but we of course want to do right by our existing fans. Skins will not be able to transfer though because the new game will be all new stuff! More info here: https://www.splitgate.com/faq
Would you ever be interested in doing a crossover with Halo?
I would love to see the portal mechanic in Halo Infinite and the Spartan armour available as a cosmetic in Splitgate.
If feels like the game had a lot of inspiration from Halo, my favourite series. Congrats on your success so far also.
I think we are trying to move away from the Halo comparisons while staying true to what makes Splitgate special. That said, we are of course fans of Halo and would not be opposed to a potential crossover in the future.
What’s the possibility of Splitgate being sold to a bigger company so that the game can be revived? It was so much fun and much better than Halo Infinite and it’s sad to see it so sparsely populated now
I don't think that is likely, but I will say we are taking what we've learned and building on it. If you like Splitgate, you will love our next game!
Heading out guys! Appreciate all the questions, and sorry if I didn't get to everything. Expect more AMAs in the future, and I will see you on June 2 for Beta Season 2!
Thoughts on pineapple on pizza?
Terrible!
Do you prefer to play on mouse of with a controller?
I like both, but I probably play on mouse 80% of the time
Can i get that mender portal gun i bought in the playtest? Why was it decided it wouldn't be in the main game? I think we matched in the playtest and my team mate talked to u but i had an chat glitch and saw/heard nothing
If you purchased it in the playtest, it won't actually charge you money or splitcoin. The mender portal gun was a really old one that was never intended to make it into the game. Sorry! We have much cooler portal guns coming in the new battlepass though, I promise :)
Just had this thought today- would you guys ever consider adding weapon skins that change the appearance of projectiles (just for the skin-user and maybe friendlies, not enemies)? The Molten Plasma Rifle shooting fireballs, or maybe different-colored railgun blasts depending on the skin, for examples
We are working on a new skin system to allow legendary weapons to have many custom components!
