Titanfall’s ties with Titanfall will be closed soon
Apex Legends Season 9 will connect more with the universe of Titanfall, the shooter saga with which Respawn Entertainment became known. As revealed by Chad Grenier, game director at Respawn, he has promised “a lot” of content based on Titanfall: “we’ve said it to other people before: if you’re fans of Titanfall, keep an eye out for Season 9 because there’s going to be some cool stuff.” A new character, Blisk, was recently leaked, whose ultimate ability is to summon a Titan that will move automatically.
“What happens in Titanfall is a war. Apex is what happens after the war; for example, what is it like to live in this place? So we’re trying to mix Titanfall with that because Titanfall is very much part of the same universe,” according to the team.
