Check out our review of Titanfall.
You might have woken up to a mysterious email this morning from Electronic Arts containing an “exclusive invitation” to an “Xbox One Alpha Trial” for a game that turns out to be Respawn Entertainment’s Titanfall. Try to contain your excitement. The “Alpha Trial,” which is probably more of a multiplayer beta test with a fancy name, hasn’t actually started yet.
Follow the link in the email and you’re taken to a section of the official Titanfall website. After signing into your Origin account – yes, you’ll need one for this – you’re presented with a brief questionnaire asking for your name, email, phone number, and a couple of other details. Complete that and you get a message letting you know that you’ll be informed when the test kicks off. Here it is verbatim:
“Congratulations, your application to participate is complete. If you are selected to take part in our upcoming test, you will receive an email in the coming weeks with a unique code and instructions on how to download and access the game on Xbox One. Thank you!”
There’s no timetable for when the trial will kick off, but you can bet that it’ll happen before March 11. Since that’s when the game comes out and stuff.
