1047 Games Shuts Down Splitgate and Empulse, Abandons Live-Service Shooters

1047 Games is pulling the plug on active development for both Splitgate: Arena Reloaded and Empulse, marking a significant strategic retreat for the studio behind one of the more beloved portal-based shooters in recent memory. The developer has announced it is moving away from live-service shooters entirely, a genre that has proven brutally difficult to sustain in an increasingly crowded market. Both titles will transition to peer-to-peer hosting, meaning players can still connect and play, but no further updates, content drops, or support will be forthcoming from the team.
