What makes Splitgate 2 stand out is its fast gunplay, smooth movement, and its portal mechanics. Splitgate 2’s battle royale mode loads 15 teams into an airship flying above Split Worlds, a huge map of five unique biomes connected by, you guessed it, portals. As for multiplayer, Splitgate 2 is made up of core Arena modes such as Hotzone, Team Deathmatch, and Firecracker, a 24-Player Onslaught mode, a custom map creator, and limited-time segments. One of those limited-time experiences goes by the name of Tagging Tactics, a new event that has gone live in Splitgate 2.
Tagging Tactics is focused on a fresh Graffiti mode, requiring you to stay on the move and use your portals to claim the walls around you. All the walls at the start of a Graffiti match will be blank and to add them to your team’s tally, shoot a portal at the wall and run through the portal to turn the wall to your team’s colour, scoring a point. Gain the upper-hand by stealing enemy walls and the team that reaches the score limit or has the most walls before the game ends wins. Of course, weapons will still be in play, so fight to defend and claim territory.
