Release: March 11, 2014
Platforms: Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360, Xbox One
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Developer: Respawn Entertainment
Microsoft has finally revealed their exclusive new IP, Titanfall to release this spring on March 11. Heading into the next-generation of consoles in a few weeks from now, Killzone: Shadow Fall will be the only console exclusive online first person shooter being on PlayStation 4. While Microsoft has unlimited funds to release any video game, they’re properly preparing their next franchise in comparison to releasing a launch title in the midst of Call of Duty: Ghosts, Battlefield 4 and Killzone S.F.
Speaking of which, the original team from the Call of Duty series with Infinity Ward are behind the new Titanfall game. This has really put a strain on the former strong relationship between Microsoft and Activision (see Destiny), as Electronic Arts is going all out these next few months to dethrone Call of Duty as the first person shooter king.
If you still haven’t seen Titanfall in action, you can check out its “Angel City Gameplay Demo” and “First To Fall World Tour” videos showcasing its unique gameplay. Stay tuned for more news and content to release in the coming months from EA and MS.
