The Splitgate Effect

The phenomenon that takes place when a once popular first-person shooter loses a majority of its player base within a few months of its initial hype due to player disinterest.

The video game 'Splitgate' once had thousands of players online and even was, at one point, the most streamed game on Twitch, but it has sadly lost more than 90% of its player base mainly due to players losing interest.

(Hyped First-Person Shooter) is no longer popular due to the Splitgate Effect.
