Titanfall 2 on PlayStation 4 looking more likely

Titanfall

Titanfall was released in March last year to much fuss and excitement. And it was a pretty damned fun game. But the Titanfall of then is a very different thing to the Titanfall we have now. With a host of new modes, features and tweaks it’s now a much better game than it was then. And it’s likely that all of these new additions, and more, will make it in to the game’s inevitable sequel. And that sequel’s more than likely hitting the PlayStation 4.

While we’ve heard before that it’s likely that Titanfall could be headed to the PlayStation 4, we’ve gotten some fresh new hints. Speaking at the Technology, Internet & Media Conference in San Francisco, EA CFO Blake Jorgensen made a few more hits that Sony’s console would be getting Respawn’s mech-battler in the future.

Last year it was on the Xbox only; in the future, we haven’t yet announced, but we’ll probably have another Titanfall game. It will probably be a bigger footprint than just a single platform. I think that’s a huge positive for us.

Back in an earnings call in May last year, EA officially confirmed that it had signed a deal with Respawn Entertainment to produce more Titanfall “experiences.” My singular hope is that this time, they’re given enough budget to produce a single player campaign to take advantage of the interesting, yet unexplored lore they’ve built in to the game. It’s one area where Titanfall fell flat. If you have the chance though, do try and play Titanfall as it is now, because it’s some of the most pure fun multiplayer available.

There are, of course, those worried whether or not the PS4 – or its servers – could handle Titanfall, because of the game’s reliance on Microsoft’s Azure cloud. The game relies quite heavily on the power of the cloud, and thus would be a tricky task to implement on any other platform and oh my god I can’t even type this sentence with a straight face.

        I know right? Now that everyone’s getting familiar with the SDK’s and know how to get the most out of the new consoles it’s going to be glorious!! Heck, the PS3.5 might actually even hit 60fps!!????????????

      Don’t be so hasty. We all know where giant robots in popular culture originates from.

    EA must be regretting making it exclusive to MS; I think they gambled on the One outselling PS4…boy did they gamble wrong on that one.

    Titanfall is fun game though; haven’t played it nearly enough though.

      All exclusivity deals goes along with a rather nice payoff, so rest assured that they did the maths and would’ve accounted for any scenario (PS4 outselling Xbox One) to make sure whatever happened they still made a profit! ????. So they already made money, now when the exclusivity deal lapses they can make even more! ????????????

    This is why TIMED EXCLUSIVES SUCK!!!!!
    We all know how this game was received on the other console a year ago and we all know how it AGED.

    Why would I want to buy the PS4 version? Even if it worked in South Africa and we all had American Internet speeds.

    RISE OF TOMB RAIDER you are next. You better knock Metacritic out of the ball park if you want me to buy you 3 years from now.
