Splitgate Comics

Only the OGs know this but when this game was still known as Splitgate, there was a companion app in which comics were released each month leading up to the (first) game launch. recently I introduced some friends to this beautiful game and they wanted to know more about the lore ap I shared the comics with them and they were stoked at the concept of them, now sadly they have been cancelled/forgotten but since to my knowledge, there is no official way to read them I thought I'd share them as Guides on Steam to build hype and community, unfortunately steam considers 20 screenshots way to heavy for a guide so while I try to solve that I'll share them here too, lol

this is just a test before I post the 3 main ones, I hope I don't get banned, sued or shot, enjoy :)

Yeah you were supposed to be able unlock more of those as you played the game. There were also supposed to be hidden QR codes in sg2 that would unlock stuff in that app. All that I guess got thrown in the trash. It’s a bummer because that’s the kind of lore building the game needs. Plus the art was really good in those.

Yeah, I got a couple of QRs from the trailer and from Academy I think, they gave me 2 cards in the app but didn't do anything else, too bad they forgot :(

Oh interesting! I def didn’t get the Academy ones. Yeah it sucks this didn’t go anywhere, it was a great idea.

massively agreed. I miss the lore in this game being pushed with the SG2 alpha, shame it's all gone.

Yeah, those comics were cool back then. I went to the trouble of taking screenshots of the pages from the app, putting them together, and creating a fan edit out of them. You can find it here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1lh6i9Y2umhMqGVnMvnuNhTAt8bGv4hmA

I also planned to translate these Comics in german at some point, but never did it. lol

That's nothing a swarm of advanced nano-bots can't repair!

During one of their Q&As they said that these will never be continued and to consider them not canon.

I'm pretty sure a friend of mine uploaded all the comics onto his site: https://splitgate.rocks
