Forums - Gaming - Only First Titanfall Title to Be Xbox/PC Exclusive, Respawn Will Work on PS4, Zampella Confirms

The news that Titanfall will be an Xbox One/Xbox 360/PC exclusive for the whole lifetime of the title surprised many, since there were many rumors around hinting to a timed exclusive (a good lesson on taking rumors with a grain of salt) but for those that want to see the developer work on PS4 there’s still hope, as Co-Founder Vince Zampella confirmed on Twitter.

Zampella explicitly mentioned, responding to a fan’s question, that the studio will definitely work on PS4, just not for the first Titanfall game.

He also clarified that the developers were initially aware only of the launch exclusivity for the title, but afterwards EA made a deal for permanent exclusivity, about which the folks at Respawn learned only recently.

 

Zampella continued by stating his appreciation for Microsoft’s and Electronic Arts support in making Titanfall.

 

He finally mentioned that plans for any sequel past the first Titanfall aren’t in place yet, so we shouldn’t get too eager.

Of course we don’t know if Respawn’s first non-exclusive title will be Titanfall‘s sequel or something entirely different, but if you’d like to see them tackle Sony’s upcoming console, you might find solace in the fact that it’ll happen. When and how is unknown for now, but it will.

It may sound weird to us, but i remember hearing about Activision registering the name Call of Duty 14, or something of the sort as a trademark to prevent others from using it. These companies plan far ahead, unless something goes wrong and the title proves not to be a good seller.



So, it was a timed exclusive until EA made a deal to keep it exclusive?



I am the Playstation Avenger.

   

it might be like Mass Effect one and two, the first one being exclusive (except TItanfall WILL stay exclusive), and the next one being multiplat...

I was just about to read the thread that claimed it was a "lifetime" exclusive when this one popped up.

I love this period before new consoles launch. Claims and counter-claims, truth and lies, rumours and more rumours.



Whoa. I would love to know how much money Microsoft waved in front of EA to make them give up the millions of dollars in extra income Titanfall would have made as a multi-plat game. It had to have been quite a package, probably including promotion out the posterior aperture.

Personally, I was hoping deals like this would end with last gen.



Holy mother of God, I am in OP! I am @migh_and_highty if anyone cares to follow :)))

It had to have been upwards of $100 million. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!
