We just announced EMPULSE, our new fast-paced 6v6 movement shooter releasing in Early Access in 2026. We're hopping on r/EMPULSE tomorrow, May 21 to answer your questions about the game. We'll have a handful of devs from 1047 Games in tow to chat EMPULSE gameplay, Early Access, and more!

We'll post the AMA thread at 9:30 AM PT, and we'll start answering questions at 10 AM PT.

Be sure to join the subreddit, check out https://playempulse.com for game info and screenshots, and we'll see you here tomorrow!

1047, youre not going to wear a controversial hat this time right???? Or make a battle royale no one asked for?

Were not gonna rebrand the whole thing a week after release, right?

We learned our lessons from splitgate... i hope.

Im not quite sure i understand the vision behind empulses streetwear, semi casual valorant esque style. Considering the game (assumedly) exists within the universe of splitgate; the nature of it being inspired by titanfall and also the entire idea of high-tech mechs and soldiers. Im just not sure a super slick and clean feel works well for this.

If anything the sci fi armour platting of the splitgate 2 characters fit significantly more with the concept of a mech shooter like empulse. Even the faction styling and lore built around the respawning chambers feels reminiscent of titanfall and halo.

Will there be portals in any way shape or form?

Please don’t fall into the trap of overcorrecting based on every player “solution” thrown your way.

Players are usually really good at identifying when something feels off or isn’t fun. But players almost never agree on the actual fix, and if the dev team chases every suggestion, the game will lose it’s identity fast.

What made Splitgate stand out in the first place was innovation and trusting your own vision. Listen to the core feedback, understand the actual problems people are having, but keep building the game you believe in instead of trying to please every individual request.

In 1047 I Trust 🫡
