Major Update Released for Splitgate 2 in July 2025

Okay, so… Splitgate 2 got an update. A big one. Which they call patch 1.2, but let’s not get technical from the start, right? The main thing is they’ve thrown in Ranked Arena (bold move, IMO), and you get to play it if you’ve racked up, like, 100,000 XP. Did I mention it’s a free-to-play FPS? Oh, and you get to mess around with portals — reminds me of, well, other portal games.

Anyway, the game’s been out since the beginning of June. Yeah, June of this year, not some dusty old release. Players have split themselves into these tribes — Aeros, Meridian, and Sabrask. Sounds fancy, doesn’t it? But it’s really just strategic map running and trying not to get shot.

Now, Splitgate 2 grew faster than grandma’s sourdough starter. Probably ’cause it was on consoles. Everyone and their cat loves this game for its quick action. But drama — because there gotta be drama, right? — came in the form of pricey microtransactions. Players grumbled, and boom, 1047 halves the costs. Good on them, I guess.

Where was I? Oh yeah, big updates. They say it’s the biggest patch ever, with “more intense” versions of Splitball and such. Ever tried mastering a weapon in-game? Now they’ve got mastery skins — the bling of gaming if you ask me. You go through challenges to upgrade your weapons. I’ve seen a few: Goliath, Trailblazer, and Blitz. Not bad, huh?

This update is tied to their roadmap — you know, the promise land of content. New maps, weapons, all that jazz. But they swear more surprises will drop. Like a magician pulling rabbits out of hats, or maybe something better. Who doesn’t like surprises?

Oh, and the community is buzzing with tips and tricks like bees in spring. They think this patch is a sign of awesomeness to come. Some folks even want in-game stats, probably to show off their headshot counts. Classic gamer stuff.

Digging into the nitty-gritty… Patch 1.2 brings Ranked Arena — gotta earn your way up from Bronze to Champion here. Then there are weapon skins, unlocked through dedication (and probably a ton of playing hours). The Battle Pass, the big shiny one, offers loads of goodies for a mere 500 Splitcoin.

Mentions of bug fixes and performance boosts are sprinkled throughout — fixing visuals, arena tweaks, and making things run smoother in Battle Royale. Oh, and ice on custom maps is now slippery, just in case you were wondering.

So there it is, a patch so juicy it could become a meme. Splitgate 2 seems to be hitting its stride, with players on the edge of their seats waiting for the next drop. And that’s that.
