Current Events > Bad news for Respawn Entertainment.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Respawn posted this on their social media. It's a WHOLE lot of corpo-speak to make it seem not as bad as it is, but to translate: "We cancelled some projects to focus on our two biggest money-makers, and fired a bunch of our employees. We hope you understand!"https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/1/158a55f8.jpg

They cancelled a Titanfall game. It was an extraction shooter so eh but just goes to show EA really doesn't know what to do with their best devs. Not unexpected tho.

Titanfall us my favorite fps of the past 15 years. Both 1 and 2 are amazing. I have wanted a 3 for so long - apex doesn't do it for me.

This sucks.

I started playing Apex, when it came out, but then I stopped and started paying Titanfall 2 horde mode and it was more fun.

I have gone back a few times for the titanfall 2 revival weekends

All I care about is apex and star wars jedi so... fine by me.

Sucks for the workers tho

It continues to astonish me how titanfall came out of the gate as an absolutely original and kick-ass shooter that then followed itself up with one of the best single player campaigns in the genre with the sequel, and in both cases they were unceremoniously dumped right in between a Call of Duty and a Battlefield before being dropped entirely as a franchise so the developers could be directed to make another fortnite.

Reportedly around 300-400 have been fired.

I had a launch xbox one. The fact it was the flagship game early on for a doomed system really hurt it I guess.

Attrition mode in 1 was like one of the coolest modes ever in a shooter.

The only games they make that I care about are the Jedi games, so hopefully another one isn't too far away.
