Splitgate Single-Player on the Table, Dev Considering Options Including Halo-Style Campaign

1047 Games has said that a single-player experience for Splitgate is on the table, and the team is considering various options including a Halo-style campaign.

Halo is one of the franchises that inspired Splitgate, so a campaign in the same vein seems like an obvious choice. However, 1047 Games has said that it’s also considering something similar to a “franchise mode” found in sports games because “Splitgate” is like a sport in the game’s universe.

“With an overhaul of our bot AI, the game could introduce a large roster of AI players who can be recruited to play on a team with you,” 1047 Games explained on its blog. “Each AI player has a set of stat ratings like aim, portal movement, and awareness. You and your team would then progress through a sports season and play against other AI teams and eventually compete for the championship. It wouldn’t have to stop with single player either, maybe you could pit your recruited team against the team of another real player! This is another idea with endless possibilities.”

1047 Games is also considering a map editor, but believes that it would be “a massive undertaking.” Regardless, the studio thinks a map editor would be a valuable edition to Splitgate.

“I would love the possibility of disabling certain portal pads and adding new pads that totally change the way maps get played,” reads the blog. “Pantheon, but the whole ground is one giant portal surface. Stadium, but you add an entirely new upper level. It’s not just portal pads that could be added, of course. You could add walls, bridges, props, weapons, and new spawn points! I would wager that the game mode Contamination would be a lot more fun with custom maps! The number of possibilities is exciting with a feature like that.”

1047 Games recently announced that it has received $100 million in funding for Splitgate following its massive success.
