A former employee of the studio revealed on her LinkedIn profile that a game, which had been in development for several years, was abruptly halted this week. No specific reasons were provided for the sudden stop in production. Last year, journalist Jeff Grubb disclosed that this project was not a mainline entry in the series, clarifying it was not Titanfall 3. Respawn Entertainment had assembled a unique "experimental team" for its development, bringing in experts with a strong background in crafting multiplayer shooters.
This isn't the first time Respawn has had to cancel a project. Last year, they also shut down an arcade shooter codenamed Titanfall Legends. The Titanfall series, known for its exhilarating mix of action and mech piloting, allows players to engage in battles either as agile pilots or commanding powerful Titans. Since its debut in 2014, the franchise has captivated gamers with its innovative gameplay that merges parkour with intense team battles.
Currently, Respawn's focus has shifted to other exciting projects. They are diligently working on the third installment of the Star Wars Jedi series, as well as collaborating with Bit Reactor on a new strategy game set in the Star Wars universe. These developments showcase Respawn's ongoing commitment to delivering compelling gaming experiences across different genres.
