Hi! I’m Matt (1047 Avez Corn).
I’m a Product Manager here at 1047 Games. I joined the team a few months ago during the beta (the first one 😉), and one of my top priorities has been taking a fresh look at our store, pricing, and progression systems for SPLITGATE: Arena Reloaded.

Over that time, we’ve had a lot of conversations about what a true successor to Splitgate should feel like. Not just how a new map plays or how a new weapon handles, but the whole experience: how your time in the Arena is rewarded, and just as importantly, how it feels when you choose to spend money. These moments shape your relationship with the game and we want both your time and your support to be valued, respected, and worthwhile.

A big part of this work has involved listening. We’ve spent a lot of time reading your comments, posts, DMs, and Discord discussions. Building a game like this is always an ongoing process, and your feedback has been incredibly helpful in guiding where we go next.

With SPLITGATE: Arena Reloaded, we wanted to make sure earning and spending reflect the fairness and approachability you, and we, value.

So, when you return to the Arena on December 17th, you’ll notice something right away: nothing in the store is above $20 USD.

That’s just one part of the big changes coming. Let’s talk about the rest of what you can expect at launch.

TL;DR – What’s Changing

• We’ve reduced bundle prices across almost the entire store, with nothing above $20 USD
• We’ll automatically compensate you for the difference in Splitcoin for past bundle and individual cosmetic purchases that now cost less.
• We’re adding a new 100 Splitcoin pack in the store so that you can purchase the amount of Splitcoin you need without overspending.
• All variants and upgrades are now included by default for purchases in the store. You no longer need to spend Proelium on variants and upgrades when you purchase a weapon or character with Splitcoin (including bundles and individual items).
  • Proelium reimbursements for anything you previously spent on variants or upgrades tied to store purchases
  • All variants and upgrades will be unlocked for previously purchased store bundles
• We’ve restructured Mythic Bundles into two focused options (Character Bundles and Primary Weapons Bundles) to give you more flexibility and choice at an approachable price point.
• We’ve also added The Proelium Exchange to the store, where you can acquire weapon skins using the newly progression-driven Proelium.
• Bundles will stay available for the full season and remain viewable in customization.

Now, let’s walk through each of these updates in more detail.

Making Bundles Fairer & Simpler

“Nothing in the store is above $20 USD”

To make that statement a bit more tangible, here’s a look at the first section of the store as it will appear on December 17th:

Here, you can see the Boxcutter Bundle — a Legendary Weapons Bundle priced at 1,550 Splitcoin (about $15). It features cardboard-themed versions of the Tempo, Trailblazer, and Synapse as well as a spray and a charm (because nothing says competitive arena warfare like corrugated packaging materials).

You’ll also notice the new Starter Pack ($9.99), which includes an Epic character skin, three Epic weapons (each with included color variants), a charm, and 1,000 Splitcoin, which is enough for the Premium Battle Pass if that’s something you’re thinking about. Both serve as examples of how bundles and packs are now newly structured and priced in SPLITGATE: Arena Reloaded.

Lower Prices and Getting Only What You Need

Reducing Prices

That preview helps set the stage of what to expect, but it’s just one part of a wider refresh: we’ve lowered bundle prices across nearly the entire store.

With prices decreasing, some bundles and individual cosmetics may now cost less than they did before launch. To account for these changes, any player who previously purchased a store bundle or individual cosmetic with Splitcoin will automatically be compensated for the difference between the old price and the new one in Splitcoin.

No action is needed on your part. Splitcoin reimbursements will be issued automatically to your account, and will match the way the item was originally purchased. For example, à la carte purchases will be reimbursed against the updated à la carte price, and bundles will be reimbursed against the updated bundle price.

Aligning Bundle Prices with Splitcoin Packs

We have also aligned bundle prices more closely with Splitcoin pack values. The intent is simple: make it clearer and easier to buy exactly what you want, and not overpay.

Take the Boxcutter Bundle from earlier. It costs 1,550 Splitcoin, which lines up exactly with the 1,050 Splitcoin pack ($9.99) and the 500 Splitcoin pack ($4.99). Two coin packs, no surprises, no guesswork, just a direct path to the thing you want.

100 Splitcoin Pack

But sometimes a bundle may still land slightly above a specific currency pack, or just above the balance you have remaining in your account. When that happens, we want the purchase experience to still feel frictionless. That’s why we’re introducing a new 100 Splitcoin pack ($0.99).

It gives you finer control when you’re close to a purchase amount and helps reduce the amount of unused currency sitting in your account.

All Variants and Upgrades Included in Store Purchases

Previously, some weapons and characters in the store included variants or visual upgrades that were unlocked separately with Proelium.

We’ve simplified that system so that it’s clear and feels complete right out of the gate.

From now on:

• All store bundles include every variant and upgrade by default. If you buy the bundle, you own the full bundle with no extra Proelium required.
• Character and weapon skins purchased individually with Splitcoin will also include all of their variants and upgrades unlocked by default.

This includes tracer effects, reactive visuals, death effects, jetpack upgrades, and color variants. If an item has any of these enhancements, you can toggle them on or off depending on how you want to frag out.

To honor the time and resources players may have already put into unlocking variants and upgrades:

• Any Proelium previously spent to unlock variants or upgrades from store items will be fully reimbursed.
• Any remaining locked variants or upgrades tied to purchased store items will now be unlocked automatically.
• As an example, the Boxcutter Bundle you saw earlier includes three assault rifles, each with three additional color variants. Under this new system, all nine of those variants are included automatically the moment you purchase the bundle.

Mythic Bundles Rebuilt for Flexibility and Player Choice

As part of updating the store for SPLITGATE: Arena Reloaded, we also revisited how Mythic-tier content is offered. Mythics are some of the most aspirational and unique items in the game, and we wanted the way you acquire them to feel just as approachable as the rest of our changes.

Rather than packing everything into one large bundle, which made them prohibitively expensive for some players, Mythics are now split into two focused options to give you more freedom to choose what you like. We’ve also added more content to these news offerings to provide even more value to you. Here’s what those will look like at launch:

• Mythic Character Bundle: 2,000 Splitcoin Includes a Mythic character skin, jetpack upgrade, portal, emote, spray, secondary weapon, and all additional color variants.
• Mythic Primary Weapons Bundle: 1,900 Splitcoin Includes 3 Mythic primary weapons, tracer effects, reactive visuals, death effects, weapon charm, and all additional color variants.

You’ll see this structure in action on 12/17 with the Oni Bundle (Mythic Character Bundle) and the Hitsuyō Bundle (Mythic Primary Weapons Bundle). Here’s a preview of those two sets:

If Oni’s samurai-inspired flair speaks to you, you can pick up that bundle on its own. If you’re instead drawn to the sharp craftsmanship of the Mythic primaries in Hitsuyō, you can get that bundle separately as well. And if you want the full Ronin Collection, you can grab them both at any point during the season; whatever option best matches the way you want to show up in the Arena.

We hope this lets you pursue the parts of a Mythic set that matter most to you, at a price that feels fair.

Keeping Bundles Accessible

Now, let’s talk about limited-time offers. We know it doesn’t feel great to miss a bundle, whether it leaves the store before you’ve made up your mind or you simply weren’t playing during the window when it was available.

We want to reduce FOMO, so going forward:

• Once a bundle releases, it stays accessible for at least the full season
• After it rotates out of the storefront, you’ll still see its items in your Locker and Weapon Customization menus, where you can grab individual pieces or the full bundle at the original reduced price

Proelium and The Exchange

As we mentioned in our latest blog Deep Diving Progression, we’ve overhauled Proelium into a progression-driven currency. But in case you missed it, here’s what you should know:

You’ll earn Proelium from:

• Weekly Challenges
• Core progression paths like Career Level
• Battle Pass progression
• Daily Login Rewards

You’ll be able to spend that currency on new weapon cosmetics in a new section of the store. The Exchange will offer a new rotation of weapon skins and variants each week for you to explore and target. Think of it as a weekly buffet of weapon fashion, minus the questionable shrimp.

Here’s a personal favorite you’ll come across:

As part of this update, we’re scaling all preexisting Proelium balances by 10 to match this new progression-driven economy. So don’t be surprised if your total looks higher after launch; this is simply converting old values into the new scale so rewards, costs, and earnings stay consistent.

For example, if you had 10 Proelium before, you’ll log back in with 100.

As We Return to the Arena

As we gear up for SPLITGATE: Arena Reloaded, our hope is that these updates make one thing clear: we want to be upfront about how things work, listen to your feedback, and respect your time.

We’re so excited for you to dive into the Arena on December 17th!
