Some for free, some for a fee
Splitgatewas due to launch out of beta this month, but instead a massive uptick in popularity for the free-to-play shooter caused its developers toplace the game in indefinite beta. Now they’ve launched “Season 0”, including a new map, a new mode, and free and premium challenges for those who buy a battle pass.
Here’s a trailer for season 0:

It also adds Karman Station, a new map set in outer space with an open central area and a sniper tower in the periphery.
While those additions andsome quality of life improvementsare available to all, you need to purchase the season 0 battle pass to get access to 100 levels of challenges through which you can unlock exclusive armors, weapon skills and cosmetic items for the game. The battle pass comes in two variants - Premium, which costs $10, and Premium+20 Levels which costs $20.
Splitgate is a little bit new and a little bit old-fashioned, in that it’s a scifi arena shooter with lots of maps and modes but it feels fresh due to the inclusion of Portal-style portals. People call it “Halo meets Portal” a lot, but I prefer to think of it as CliffyB Envy Simulator 2021. If you’d like to give it a try, have a read of Ollie’sSplitgate tipsfirst.
