This is good news for fans of the first game, which was purely multiplayer focused and got criticized for its lack of a solo campaign. That said, Stern (speaking to Forbes) also stated that “the multiplayer game will be even better than it was the first time around”.
He continues:
The sequel is set to take inspiration from the American Revolution and Civil War but adding a futuristic, space warfare twist on them. On this topic, Stern said:
Although the game has not been in development for very long, the mere fact that Respawn Entertainment is looking to expand its impressive IP to include an apparently engrossing story and setting can only be a good thing.
No firm release date has been set, but EA has hinted that Titanfall 2 will be out in early 2017.
