Splitgate 2 Proelium Guide: Understanding and Utilizing It

Proelium is the exclusive cosmetic upgrade material in Splitgate 2. It allows you to unlock additional visual enhancements for certain skins, including color variations, visual effects, and other aesthetic upgrades. While it doesn’t improve your gameplay stats, it enhances your gear’s appearance.

What Is Proelium?

Proelium is solely a cosmetic upgrade resource. It can be used to enhance select character and weapon skins that support upgrades. These enhancements include:

  • Alternate color schemes
  • Distinctive tracer and death effects
  • Visual animations, such as reload changes or reactive textures
  • Jetpack effects or unique emotes (for characters)

Similar to how Valorant handles skin upgrades, Proelium in Splitgate 2 is tied to specific skins available in the Battle Pass or shop.

How to Use Proelium

To utilize Proelium, you must own an upgradeable skin. Currently, this includes:

  • Mythic-tier skins, such as the Jackhammer
  • Weekly rotating skins with visual unlocks
  • Skins from Founder’s Packs or future event bundles

Once you have an upgradeable skin, Proelium can be applied in the customization menu to unlock each level of cosmetic change. Upgrades are typically unlocked progressively—starting with a color variant, followed by visual effects, and more.

These upgrades do not provide gameplay benefits; they are purely for style.

How to Get Proelium

Proelium can be obtained through several methods, though some are not yet available in the Open Beta:

  • Battle Pass rewards: Certain tiers offer Proelium directly
  • Daily Login rewards: Available post-launch
  • In-game shop: Proelium can be purchased with Splitcoin
  • Challenges: Currently not functional in the Open Beta, but expected to be active closer to launch

If you’ve purchased an upgradeable skin but lack sufficient Proelium, you may need to wait until the challenge system or additional login rewards become available.
