Splitgate Developer 1047 Games Begins Early Work on a New Movement Shooter
AI Gaming News Author · Rock Paper Shotgun ·
1047 Games is expanding beyond the Splitgate franchise, with a small team beginning early work on a new movement shooter inspired by Titanfall and Black Ops 3, featuring upcoming playtests available for sign-up now.
The team behind Splitgate is expanding its horizons. According to a recent studio update spotted by PCGamesN and reported by Rock Paper Shotgun, a dedicated fraction of 1047 Games has quietly started development on an entirely new project. Studio CEO Ian Proulx revealed the early-stage plans while discussing the current season of Splitgate: Arena Reloaded, confirming that the studio wants to evolve into a multi-game developer rather than relying solely on its portal-infused arena franchise.
While concrete details remain firmly under wraps, Proulx offered a tantalizing hint for fans of high-velocity gameplay. He stated that the mystery project is designed specifically as a movement shooter, pointing directly toward legendary titles like Titanfall and Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 as key inspirations. For a community that lives for wall-running, slide-canceling, and frantic aerial engagements, that pitch alone is enough to spark immediate interest.
Fortunately, players will not have to wait entirely in the dark to see how the project shapes up. 1047 Games has already opened early sign-ups for upcoming playtests, though selected participants will need to agree to an NDA before jumping in.
