While 2021 certainly had its ups and downs, one game that came out of nowhere and resonated well with audiences around the globe was 1047 Games’ free-to-play sci-fi shooter, Splitgate.
Blending Portal-like traversal mechanics with the snappy first-person shooting of the Halo series, the Nevada-based studio’s debut title is a rivetingly fun good time. Don’t just take our word for it, though.
Yes, from super busy servers getting overwhelmed by high levels of demand to a $1.5 billion valuation following 13 million downloads, the start-up company’s FPS sure has gone from strength to strength, eh?
To help showcase what a great year Splitgate has had, the developer has released a really interesting infographic highlighting a handful of key facts. Feel free to check out said end-of-year image down below:
As you can see, the figures are pretty astounding. Over 15 million gamers have downloaded the game; over 6 billion folks have had their butts fragged; over 7 billion portals have been spawned; and over 6 thousand years of Splitgate have been played in 2021 alone — not too shabby, eh?
Accompanying the new year-in-review stats is a funky video breaking down the facts, which you can check out below:
