News There's Something Weird Going on with Titanfall 2 Right Now
Your rockets will blot out the sun
Well, we haven't thought about Titanfall 2 in a while. Respawn's beloved first-person shooter came to PS4 in 2016, and was met with near-unanimous praise for its brilliant campaign and entertaining multiplayer. Unfortunately it never quite caught on, and the developer moved onto Apex Legends — a free-to-play...
News EA Allegedly Scraps Unannounced Single Player Apex Legends Game
Not-so legendary
EA is sunsetting the Apex Legends Mobile game, and according to a Bloomberg article by reliable reporter Jason Schreier, it’s also quietly cancelled an unannounced single player game from Respawn set in the same universe.

News There Isn't a Single Titanfall Game 'Currently in Development'
2019 project likely scrapped
Last February, developer Respawn Entertainment teased that it had a "new twist" on Titanfall in the works with a release date of that same year. That quite clearly never happened and it doesn't look like that project will ever actually see the light of day. In a new interview with IGN, the studio has said that "there's...

Why you shouldn't skip on Titanfall
PlayStation Plus' line-up for the month of December 2019 was announced yesterday, and as per usual, the response was mixed to say the least. The less said about Monster Energy Supercross: The Official Videogame the better, but it's the inclusion of Respawn Entertainment's Titanfall 2

Titanfall 3 questions asked
Remember when Respawn Entertainment CEO Vince Zampella said that a new Titanfall game was planned for launch at some point in 2019? Yeah, what on earth happened to that? It's completely missing in action, making Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order the studio's only title launching this holiday period. Obviously, we can't expect...

Game of the Year 2016 #10 - Titanfall 2
BT 4 LYF
We've been blessed with well over two decades worth of first-person shooter games and in that time, especially the last six years or so, the industry has been saturated with the genre, with titles delivering varying degrees of quality. This over saturation, while a sobering cornerstone of the violence in video game argument, has also been a...

Drop a Titan on that, mate
So according to a lot of folks, Titanfall 2 is actually one of the best shooters to be released in years. Our very own Liam Croft thought it was excellent, and we've basically seen nothing but praise around the 'net since it launched last month. There's just one problem, though: it didn't sell very well. Fortunately,...
News EA Says It's Committed to the Titanfall Franchise
But Respawn gaffer doesn't know what that means
Titanfall 2 is something of a critical darling, but it's been a commercial catastrophe. Despite releasing on the PlayStation 4 this time, a competitive release window means that it's failed to set cash registers alight. This has prompted publisher EA to come out and say that it's committed to the...

Round Up Titanfall 2 PS4 Reviews Fall from the Sky
EA we go again
Another week, another critically acclaimed first-person shooter from EA.

News Titanfall 2's Campaign Is All About Bromance Between Man and 'Bot
Best buds
Jack Cooper is Titanfall 2's lead character, and from where we're sitting, he's just about as generic as protagonists come. Voiced by Troy Baker and sporting rough yet stylish facial hair, let's just say that we don't think he'll be remembered as an iconic video game hero. That said, he does have one reasonably unique attribute in that...

News People Hate Titanfall 2 So Much That the Dev's Had to Respond
Titan maul
We thought Titanfall 2 was really fun when we tried the Technical Test last weekend, but it's left some fans outraged. Chief among the complaints is the sequel's slower movement speed compared to the original, which Respawn Entertainment claims is designed to prompt more skilful firefights. It has, however, bowed to feedback, and says...

New modes will be complimentary, too
Titanfall 2 may well be the highlight of E3 2016 so far – and just to sweeten the pot, Respawn Entertainment has announced that all future map and mode DLC will be free for the PlayStation 4 first-person shooter. It makes sense, of course, as the alternative only serves to split the player base, which is never...

Rumour Titanfall 2 Will Rope in PS4 Players with Grappling Hook, Bigger Maps
Due out in October, apparently
Remember, a few years ago, when bow and arrows started popping up in tons of different games? Well, this year's equivalent appears to be the grappling hook.

News Titanfall 2 Is Starting to Pop Up in Shops
Dropping a titan on PS4 this time
It looks like Titanfall 2 will be announced imminently, as eagle-eyed NeoGAF users have noticed that the title is starting to appear in shops. An image of a GameStop display stand shows placeholder art from the forthcoming sequel nestled curiously atop a PlayStation 3 shelf. That's probably not an indication of...
News Titanfall 2 Will Feature a Grounded, Dirty Single Player Campaign on PS4
Where science meets magic, apparently
Unlike its predecessor, Titanfall 2 will feature a single player campaign. That's according to an article penned by a Forbes contributor, who spoke with lead writer Jesse Stern. If accurate, the plot promises a modern re-imagining of the American Revolution and the American Civil War in space. "What inspires us...

News EA Hints at Huge Positive of Bringing Titanfall 2 to PS4
Az-u-were
Colour us surprised: we were pretty confident that the original Titanfall would be at the very least announced for the PlayStation 4 by now. If you go back and listen to the Xbox console exclusivity confirmation, the words used were "for the life of the title" – a wishy-washy statement that didn't seem to preclude a 'Game of the Year'...
News Why Is the Developer of Titanfall Fronting a Panel at PlayStation Experience?
Drop a titan on it
Here’s a strange one: Titanfall developer Respawn Entertainment will appear as part of a panel at PlayStation Experience this week. The Californian studio has only released one title to date – the aforementioned Xbox and PC exclusive – making its presence at a Sony-centric convention a little strange to say the least. Could...
Rumour Is Titanfall 2 Stomping onto PS4 in the Near Future?
It's a secret
Pseudo Xbox One exclusive Titanfall is a strange game. The first-person shooter – created by ex-Call of Duty makers Respawn Entertainment – was championed as the second coming of your chosen religious prophet for an outrageously long time, and then it just disappeared in the blink of an eye. As far as we’re aware, the title’s...
Feature In Theory, Could Titanfall Drop a Bot on PS4?
Sizeable speculation
The advent of the so-called industry insider – forum posters who build up a reputation among online communities such as NeoGAF for spilling the beans on secret information – means that the rumour mill is harder to navigate than ever these days. It’s always been difficult to pick the real leaks from the rubbish, but the web...

Rumour Titanfall 2 Takes One Robotic Stride Closer to PS4

News Pachter: Titanfall Exclusivity Due to Industry Thinking Xbox One Would Eat PS4's Lunch
Tides are turning
With an Xbox 360 and PC iteration in the pipeline, Titanfall is not quite the bonafide Xbox One exclusive that Microsoft’s hyping it up to be. However, the Redmond-based manufacturer has ensured that the inaugural iteration in Respawn Entertainment’s first-person franchise will not arrive on the PlayStation 4. What does that...
Opinion EA Found Its Call of Duty Killer, and Committed a Titanic Mistake
Bracing for a fall
To say that EA is obsessed with Call of Duty would be an understatement. The publisher has been desperately trying to pick off Activision’s multiformat cash cow ever since Infinity Ward – a studio originally made up of Medal of Honor veterans, we hasten to add – changed the entire first-person arena one poorly balanced perk...
