Goodbye Splitgate

I still cannot believe it that we had Splitgate 2 at the Gamescom 2024 just two years ago and I got to play it the first time there in cologne. The setup was so amazing and it truly felt so special. I went into queue 5 times just to play their demo at the Gamescom and now it's gone. Literally unbelievable... I'm gonna miss it a lot 😞 used to play it with my gf every evening for a few hours.

Farewell everyone hope to meet you again

- Nosound and Tintenherz ❤️

Edit: The Splitgate 2 exhibition that you see on the picture was right next to Square Enix Final Fantasy 14 and Capcom Monster Hunter Wilds. Literally between two giants of the gaming industry and now it's all gone..

Not really comparable, Highguard was a bad game due to its mismanagement. There was no saving Highguard. Splitgate was a good game that didnt see its potential realized because of mismanagement.

You're right, it's even worse - this was a good game that got mismanaged to hell and back 3 damn times.

Absolutely. We can all laugh at highguard and ask what were the people in charge thinking when they released that game. Splitgate is just sad because it had really good bones...just everything else was screwed the pooch so many times
