“Titanfall 2” Review

 

As much fun as 2014’s multiplayer-centric Titanfall may have been, which is a lot, the lack of a single-player campaign was a rather glaring omission. But while Titanfall 2 (PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC) thankfully corrects this error, and in spades, it does so without sacrificing the game’s established, and still solid multiplayer. Which is why this sequel ranks among the year’s best shooters and strongest overall games.

“Titanfall 2” Single-Player Mode Review

 

Like Star Wars Battlefront, Evolve, and Rainbow Six Siege, the original Titanfall was a multiplayer game that kind of had a campaign. While it had a story mode, it was really just a loosely connected string of multiplayer matches. But with Titanfall 2 (PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC), the good people at Respawn Entertainment have given this sci-fi shooter a real, no-foolin’, story-driven, single-player campaign. With this sequel not out yet, and thus the multiplayer servers not yet populated, here’s my assessment of the game’s campaign to tide you over until I’m able to shoot real people online.
