Respawn Entertainment has addressed the potential for Titanfall 3. One of the most cutting-edge shooters of the past ten years, Titanfall also gave rise to one of the most lucrative franchises in modern gaming.
A few months after the Xbox One was released, the first game was released as an Xbox exclusive in 2014. It received praise for its fantastic gameplay but received criticism for its overall lack of content and campaign.
A few years later, the sequel was released, and critics praised it for continuing to develop and enhance its unique gameplay while addressing the first game’s complaints. This made room for an exceptionally memorable campaign and a ton of content.
But because it was released during a busy period, not many people bought it. Despite being a vast industry force and continuing to grow the Titanfall world, Apex Legends hasn’t yet given birth to a new Titanfall game.
There were speculations that a new Titanfall game was shelved early this year, but Axios had the chance to speak with Vince Zampella, the head of Respawn Entertainment, and inquire about Titanfall’s future.
Zampella was pretty open in saying that while he’d love to see a new Titanfall game, nothing is currently in development. However, the director of the Titanfall series, Steve Fukuda, is now leading a small team at Respawn on a brand-new IP.

The goal, according to Zampella, is to “find something fun in something new.” Although it sounds like it’s still very early, I hope this new shooter provides the same sense of innovation as Titanfall did.
At this moment, Titanfall 3 appears to be nothing more than a fantasy. Since the last game was released almost seven years ago and Respawn has found tremendous success with Star Wars and Apex, Titanfall 3 might never be made. Hopefully, that will change in the future, but it doesn’t appear likely for the time being.
