Respawn Cancels Titanfall Universe Multiplayer Shooter

A former employee of Respawn Entertainment recently disclosed on LinkedIn that the studio has ceased development on a new game this week. The project, which had been in the works for several years, was abruptly halted without any public explanation provided for the decision.

Last year, gaming journalist Jeff Grubb clarified that the canceled game was not a mainline entry in the Titanfall series, specifically stating it was not Titanfall 3. Respawn had assembled an "experimental team" for this project, comprised of experts in multiplayer shooter development.

This isn't the first time Respawn has pulled the plug on a project; they previously canceled an arcade shooter known internally as Titanfall Legends last year.

The Titanfall franchise, renowned for its exhilarating mix of action and mech piloting, allows players to engage in combat either as agile pilots or as formidable Titans. Since its debut in 2014, the series has captivated gamers with its distinctive gameplay, featuring parkour and intense team-based battles.

Currently, Respawn's focus has shifted to other ventures, including the development of the third installment in the Star Wars Jedi series and a new strategy game set within the Star Wars universe, developed in partnership with Bit Reactor.
