*Update* Titanfall – Expedition DLC Releases May 15th
Update: The release date has been announced for the Titanfall DLC ‘Expedition’, which will be releasing on May 15th. Below is the official press release to confirm the news.
The Frontier is about to get bigger as today Respawn Entertainment revealed the release date for the first Titanfall DLC pack, Expedition. Coming May 15 to the Xbox One and PC, Titanfall: Expedition introduces three new maps to the Frontier – Runoff, Swampland and War Games, and extends the heart-pounding action and adrenalin-fueled gameplay to new heights.
Titanfall: Expedition is the first of three planned DLC packs, each retailing for $9.99/£7.99. For gamers looking to further extend the fight on the Frontier, the Titanfall Season Pass will deliver three content packs as soon as they become available. The Titanfall Season Pass is available at a one-time price of $24.99/£19.99 and can now be purchased for the Xbox One, Xbox 360 and on Origin for PC. Titanfall: Expedition for the Xbox 360 will be available in June.
Heralded as “a new breed of multiplayer” by Game Informer and “the next big thing” by Polygon, Titanfall drops players in the middle of a conflict between the Interstellar Manufacturing Corporation (IMC) and the Militia on a distant frontier on the edge of the universe. The action is rapid and varied – featuring parkour-style wall running, massive double jumps and the ability to hijack titans. The freedom to shift back and forth between pilot and titan allows players to change tactics on the fly, attacking or escaping depending on the situation and extending the action vertically to new heights.
Original Story:EA and Respawn Entertainment have released a gameplay trailer for the first DLC coming to Titanfall with the Expedition map pack. This DLC pack will include the maps Runoff, Swampland and War Games and while an exact release date hasn’t been announced yet, it will release this month for the PC and Xbox One(likely towards the end of May).
It was also revealed this week that any DLC to be released for the Xbox 360 version of Titanfall will have to wait until Respawn have created and released the DLC for the PC and Xbox One, so that Bluepoint Games (Xbox 360 developers) will be able to convert it over to the Xbox 360 console. Expedition is expected to release next month for the Xbox 360.
