Titanfall is a surprisingly good first-person shooter for the Xbox One and PC, so it makes sense that developer Respawn Entertainment would want to capitalize on their new IP and the burgeoning mobile gaming sector. To that end, Respawn has announced that in conjunction with mobile publisher Nexon, they will be making games that exist in the Titanfall universe for smartphone and tablet. The agreement also sees Respawn and Nexon investing in a mobile game developer called Particle City which will take point for these games. Whether that means we’ll see a first-person Titanfall game on mobile, we don’t know, but seeing as Nexon is on board, the games will probably be free-to-play.
“Our partnership with Nexon is momentous for many reasons. Nexon’s unrivaled publishing network and free-to-play expertise will allow Titanfall to reach new global audiences. And with Particle City, we are closely collaborating to create all-new standalone games with original gameplay experiences that expand the Titanfall universe to players everywhere,” says Respawn CEO Vince Zampella.
The first game out of this new partnership is expected on Android and iOS sometime in 2016, so we’ll have to wait and see what comes out of this – we’re really hoping it’s good. What do you think about putting Titanfall on mobile? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
