Splitgate 2 has received an exceptional response from players since its release. The game, with its fast-paced, portal-based gameplay, next-level gunplay, fluid movements, and various game modes, has made it more refined than ever.

With all these enhancements, choosing the right gun could make all the difference between winning and losing. But with new factions, this task of choosing the best gun could sometimes feel overwhelming.

So, whether you prefer precision pistols, heavy-hitting rifles, or explosive firepower, continue as we explore the best guns in Splitgate 2 in all factions.

Aeros (Mobility-focused Faction)

Primary Weapon

Sprinter

Sprinter

This is a fast fire-rate gun that slows down over time, making it ideal for aggressive players. It can be unlocked once a player reaches Aeros level 22. The Sprinter can hold 40 rounds per mag; however, this can be upgraded.

Blitz

Blitz

Blitz is a shotgun, and it works exceptionally well in the Aeros faction. It is also considered top tier as it offers exceptional close-range damage by firing hitscan pellets. This shotgun can hold 12 rounds per magazine, and it can be unlocked at Aeros level 4.

Secondary Weapon

Punch

Punch

This heavy pistol is the best in the Aeros Faction. Two shots to the head and three to the body with this pistol can kill a player. It can be unlocked at Level 10 in the Aeros faction and offers exceptional damage and accuracy.

Meridian (Support-Heavy Faction)

Primary Weapon

Phasma

Phasma

It is undoubtedly the best primary gun for the Meridian faction. The Phasma is a submarine gun that shoots phasma projectiles that can be unlocked at Meridian level 22. It offers exceptional accuracy and a higher rate, and can hold up to 35 rounds per magazine.

Charger

Charger

It is the best alternative to Phasma but has a slow charge-up time. This rail gun-style shotgun can be unlocked at Meridian level 4 and offers immense damage and accuracy. The Charger shotgun can hold five rounds per magazine. This may seem quite low, but with the damage this gun offers, a good shooter can kill without any effort.

Secondary Weapon:

Tetra

Tetra

Tetra is a burst pistol that shoots four bursts per fire. Using this, players may need a few bullets to kill someone, but it's faster than any other secondary gun. To unlock this pistol, players will have to complete Meridian Level 19.

Sabrask (Defense and Power)

Primary Weapon:

Jackhammer

Jackhammer

The Jackhammer is the best gun for the Sabrask faction across all game modes. It is a dual-burst rifle that has great range and accuracy, which can be unlocked at Sabrask Level 13. This gun can hold 24 rounds per magazine, and it can be upgraded by unlocking further tiers.

Rattler

Rattler

Rattler is a great SMG (Submachine Gun), but it isn't better than Jackhammer. It has a great fire rate that can ramp up and strike fear in your enemies. This SMG can be unlocked at Level 22 in Sabrask and can hold 40 rounds per magazine.

Secondary Weapon:

Goliath

Goliath

Undoubtedly, Goliath is the best pistol in Splitgate 2. It is very similar to Punch, but faster and heavier. The accuracy and range it offers can be a real game changer. It can be unlocked once a player reaches Level 10 in Sabrask and can hold six rounds per magazine.
