“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.”
Developer Respawn Entertainment’s debut launched in March of 2014, exclusively for Windows and Xbox platforms. Although that game was confirmed as a “lifetime” exclusive on Microsoft’s machines, rumors prior to the launch suggested that a sequel would not be locked in to one family of platforms like its predecessor.
According to IGN, Jorgensen explained that EA intends to launch at least one new first-person shooter per year. This year is set with Battlefield Hardline and the revival of Star Wars: Battlefront, and 2016 centers around Battlefield 5 (and possibly the Mirror’s Edge sequel). Whether Titanfall‘s follow-up arrives in 2016 or later is still up in the air, though Repawn did confirm to Game Informer that 2015 would be a quiet, “heads down, back to work” kind of year, so don’t anticipate any new releases from the team in the immediate future.
