February 5, 2019 Respawn’s CEO says it’s best to stand by for extra Titanfall.
Apex Legends has been an emotional rollercoaster for Titanfall followers. First got here the information that the subsequent game within the Titanfall universe can be a battle royale with none titans in any respect. Then, as our PC review-in-progress reveals, we discovered that it’s good – typically even nice. But then we realized it got here to us in lieu of Titanfall 3. Now, apparently, there’s a correct Titanfall on the way in which regardless.
Respawn CEO Vince Zampella tweets that – along with the plans set for the Apex Legends roadmap – “We are also working on more Titanfall for later in the year (yes, I said the T word). We love being able to experiment in this crazy universe!” When a fan instructed a bit later that this might be a VR game, Zampella replied in no unsure phrases: “No!”
Oculus and Respawn have partnered for a VR game, however the implication was that it’d have a extra grounded battle theme. That’s not unattainable within the Titanfall universe, however it’s not altogether probably, both. Now should you’d wish to guess that this might as a substitute be a cell game or some form of media tie-in, that door’s open – however Zampella would definitely know what expectations come alongside the phrases “more Titanfall.”
Still, it’s curious information given what else Respawn has needed to say this week. “We’re doing a free to play game, with essentially loot boxes, after we were bought by EA, and it’s not Titanfall 3,” lead producer Drew McCoy tells Eurogamer. “It’s the perfect recipe for a marketing plan to go awry, so why have that – let’s just ship the game and let players play.”
McCoy additionally says “the world thinks we’re making Titanfall 3 and we’re not – this is what we’re making.” A Kotaku report means that Titanfall Three was “well into development” as of 2017, and was set to launch final 12 months, however primarily based on McCoy’s feedback it appears that evidently work on that game has basically morphed into Apex Legends – which meant prospects for a Titanfall 3 release date this 12 months appeared slim.
