According to Polygon and Gamespot, Electronic Arts has secured sequel rights to Respawn Entertainment’s multiplayer shooter, Titanfall.
Citing unnamed sources, Polygon also believes that the Titanfall sequel will not be Microsoft exclusive, unlike the first game. An EA representative declined to comment on the rumor.
“We do not comment on rumor or speculation. Right now all our focus is on supporting all the fans worldwide enjoying Titanfall.”
In October, Respawn founder Vince Zampella suggested in a Twitter post that Titanfall‘s exclusivity was only limited to the first game.
The Xbox One and PC versions of Titanfall released on March 11th, while earlier today Respawn announced that the Xbox 360 version has been delayed to April 8th.
“I’ve been playing the game a lot, and it is fantastic,” a post on the Titanfall website reads, in part. “But we see a few things that can be made even better, so we’re giving Bluepoint a little more time to do just that and deliver an epic Titanfall experience for Xbox 360 players. Titanfall for Xbox 360 will now be releasing on April 8 in North America, and beginning on April 11 in Europe. The game will feature the same 6v6 gameplay, maps, modes, weapons and Burn Cards as the Xbox One and PC versions of the game.”
“We appreciate everyone’s patience as we get the last details right. See you on the Frontier.”
