Description

Respawn Entertainment's first-person shooter returns with a new single-player mode and new robot Titans in Titanfall 2. The single-player campaign finds gamers controlling Militia rifleman Jack Cooper and the Titan BT-7274 as they battle aliens and hostile humans from the Interstellar Manufacturing Corporation (IMC). Levels are large and open so players can accomplish their objectives in a variety of different ways, with the heavily armored BT specializing in powerful attacks, and Cooper using stealth and parkour skills to defeat foes and solve environmental puzzles. Multiplayer action remains a huge part of Titanfall 2, with gamers taking control of six all-new Titan classes and utilizing new technology and new Pilot abilities to defeat foes. The new Titan models include: Ion, which uses directed energy to kill; Legion, a defensive specialist with a powerful minigun; Northstar, which specializes in flight and ranged attacks; the sword-wielding close-combat specialist Ronin; Scorch, which uses fire weapons; and Tone, which uses homing weapons. Meanwhile, Pilots can once again use jet packs and wall-climbing skills to navigate environments, but they also have a host of new abilities. The new grapple lets them reach remote areas and pull enemies closer, while the deadly pulse blade can detect hidden foes, and players can cloak themselves, teleport, and send out holographic copies to confuse their opponents. Gamers are rated on their performance in multiplayer matches regardless of the outcome, and Titanfall 2 also features an improved matchmaking system. New for the sequel is the Networks feature, which lets players form groups, and then automatically places members of a Network together in matches.
