Four days after appearing on stage at Summer Game Fest in a MAGA-style "Make FPS Great Again" hat, Splitgate 2 boss Ian Proulx has posted a video apologizing for his poor judgment, although he still insists that there was no intentional political message behind it.

And so it did—but so too did his choice of chapeau, emblazoned with a message clearly inspired by Donald Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan.
