14 DAY TRIAL // Titanfall developer Respawn Entertainment confirms that the upcoming sequel is going to delight fans of the series with new features, such as the single-player story campaign, while still delivering the quintessential experience seen in the original game.
Titanfall burst onto the scene at the beginning of last year from rookie studio Respawn Entertainment, a team formed by veterans from Call of Duty founder Infinity Ward. It delighted quite a lot of people with its multiplayer-only experience, and the studio has already confirmed a sequel.
Titanfall 2 is going to implement a lot of feedback through new features
Unfortunately, not a lot is known about the new game, although Respawn's Abbie Heppe has gone on the record with the EXL Podcast, via Gamepur, saying that all the feedback from fans will be implemented in the upcoming title.
According to Heppe, there were quite a few things that the studio wanted to do with the first game, but for what it's worth, it did define what the Titanfall experience is.
As such, when it comes to the sequel, the team can easily implement new things, such as a single-player story campaign, not to mention all sorts of other elements. Fans who contributed with feedback will also see their desires answered, although it's unclear in what ways.
"We've definitely heard the feedback. Obviously, I can't comment on what we're doing in the next game, but the really nice thing about working on a sequel is that we've established the core of what Titanfall is. We have assets, we have an engine, we have all of these things that we laid the foundation for in the first game that now we can really build off of in the second. So, I think there's going to be a lot of stuff that people are going to be excited about," she says.
Titanfall 2 should appear maybe in 2016 or in 2017, and it's a safe bet that it will appear on PC, Xbox One, as well as on the PS4, as Microsoft no longer has an exclusivity deal with publisher Electronic Arts.
