What to Expect in Splitgate 2’s Open Alpha Test

In an interview with the PlayStation Blog, Nate Dern, Lead Writer at 1047 Games, shed light on what to expect during the Open Alpha. A key feature is crossplay, allowing players across different platforms to compete together. The highlight will be the new 24-player mode, Multi-Team Portal Warfare, where three teams of eight will battle it out on *Splitgate*'s largest map yet. This mode offers a chance to try out new weapons, perks, and equipment, all while enjoying the signature fast-paced action.

The original *Splitgate* was renowned for its innovative portal mechanics, which allowed players to execute mind-blowing maneuvers and trickshots by manipulating rifts. *Splitgate 2* will not only retain this beloved feature but also introduce new classes or factions with unique abilities. During the Alpha, the focus will remain on the portal mechanics, refined through both internal and external feedback to ensure a standout experience in the FPS genre.
