Titanfall 2: to be multiplatform

If you’ve been bottling up your jealousy towards platforms that received stompy robot shooter Titanfall, now’s the time to let it  all go. Doesn’t that feel better? You haven’t joined OPM’s anger management class. No, we’re letting all the bad vibes go because Respawn Entertainment has announced that Titanfall 2 is a thing not only that, but it’ll be multiformat, too.


“We’re working on a sequel. No official name yet, but we’re working on that,” Respawn CEO Vince Zampella confirmed, speaking to IGN. “It’ll be multiplatform.” It’s worth stressing that PS4 isn’t mentioned explicitly here, but it doesn’t seem like a leap into insanity to imagine that Sony’s current-gen box of wonders is due for some mechanised warfare.
Enter a 20-foot ‘titan’ exoskeleton and cause tons of trouble.
If the very mention of formerly-exclusive franchises makes your inner ear muscles seal shut through loyalty, here’s the skinny on multiplayer shooter Titanfall. It’s what Infinity Ward co-founders Jason West and Vince Zampella did next after their messy split with Activision. It was celebrated for its buttery-smooth controls, free running-inspired player movement and the ability to enter a 20-foot ‘Titan’ exoskeleton and run amok.

Zampella also indicated that he’d like to see additional maps appear for free post-launch, likely a reaction to the first game’s somewhat limited on-disc content. So Respawn was essentially just getting the jitters out with Titanfall. Hopefully the mechs game sorry, next game will prove to be the true execution of that killer concept.
