New TITANFALL and STAR WARS Games in the Works After EA Acquires Respawn

Respawn Entertainment is the indie game studio behind Titanfall and Titanfall 2, and they’ve now been acquired by EA. I can hear some groans since EA has been doing a lot to anger the gaming community, but there is a lot of potential here. Titanfall 2 was published by EA and it did really well. The studio is already working on projects for EA including another Titanfall game, a VR experience, and (most importantly in my opinion) a Star Wars game. CEO and co-founder of Respawn Vince Zampella said the following about the acquisition in the official press release:

“We felt that now was the time to join an industry leader that brings the resources and support we need for long term success, while still keeping our culture and creative freedom. EA has been a great partner over the years with Titanfall and Titanfall 2, and we’re excited to combine our strengths. This is a great next step for Respawn, EA, and our players.”

We don’t know any other details yet of the games, but here’s to hoping they are amazing.
