The legendary Titanfall returns? Splitgate makes its own shooter with robots

I didn't expect Studio 1047 to land something this intriguing after the Splitgate setbacks—yet leaked clips make a loud case that Empulse exists and it isn't timid. Insiders have been sharing pre-alpha footage, and on first watch it feels like Call of Duty vs. Titanfall: familiar guns, but with mobility turned up. Movement is frantic—wall-runs, grappling hooks, jet boosts, e.g., players stringing actions together to flank or escape—and team battles look built around vertical chaos rather than slow map control. The standout element? Giant robots dotted across maps; one test clip shows a player hopping into a mech (i.e., a hulking suit), laying down machine-gun fire while a shield soaks enemy shots. An official reveal is reportedly due this year, though the project's exact state remains murky and leaks are not the same as release-ready polish, so take this with a grain of salt.
