    Titanfall 2 goes for feel above all else, and it feels fantastic.

    Titanfall 2 fixes the content-lean issues that plagued the original game while delivering an even more action-packed experience. The addition of a full campaign allows players to finally invest themselves in the Frontier vs. IMC war while new game modes make multiplayer more fun than before. It’s a tougher game with a bit more strategic thinking required than the first, but remains a top-shelf shooter that is a must buy for any fan of the genre.

    Respawn Entertainment used Titanfall 2 to improve the formula seen in the first game, without compromising the experience. The introduction of a brief but entertaining single player campaign is just the icing on the cake.

    Titanfall 2 is the perfect evolution for Respawn's saga, with an intense and highly compelling - even if a bit shorter than expected - campaign and a solid, rich and satisfying multiplayer. And it's incredible what kind of gorgeous visuals they could squeeze out of a decade-old engine.

    Cleverer and more creative than the first, this truly complete Titanfall is a game-changer. [Christmas 2016, p.71]

    Titanfall 2 is a gigantic stompy robot that for whatever reason is slipping by gamers unnoticed. This is a travesty, as it's an incredible title – easily one of the best of the year.

    It’s a phenomenal multiplayer experience coupled with a surprisingly varied and downright exciting campaign. Respawn have improved on the original’s excellent multiplayer aspects, moved across to multiple formats and nailed the single-player experience, as a result Titanfall 2 is an absolute must buy.

    Titanfall 2 is a near perfect example of what a quality developer can produce when it listens to the feedback of the community, as it delivers a stunning marriage of near perfect gameplay, near perfect multiplayer, and a story that is well...near perfect. I am very confident saying that Titanfall 2 is one of the best games you can play in 2016, period.

    Titanfall 2 is everything for which you could possibly wish to find in a sequel, answering all of the negatives of its predecessor. While short in length, the campaign is an exhilarating ride that showcases everything that made the first game feel so refreshing, and the refined multiplayer will keep you consumed for months to come. This title is a must own for any first-person shooter fan.

    Titanfall 2 is one of the most joyful gaming experiences of the year. There are lots of games with heart and excitement, but Titanfall 2 manages to combine almost everything that was a strength for the first entry and build on it with loads more personality.

    Respawn Entertainment presents a wonderful single player campaign in Titanfall 2 while they continue to evolve the multiplayer from the first game. I recommend that everyone should play Titanfall 2.

    Respawn went all out with this sequel, patching up its biggest hole, tightening its loose screws, and delivering the game I think we all hoped for when we first caught wind of the original back at E3 2013.

    Titanfall 2 boasts the best FPS campaign since Modern Warfare, and it comes bundled with an exciting, hyper-fast multiplayer that will keep you entertained for months. This is proof that Respawn is still the best shooter developer in the business. Like a Pilot zipping along a vertical surface, I can only hope the developer maintains its impressive momentum.

    Titanfall 2 is an incredible and exhilarating title that you must play for yourself. With an extremely fun and diverse single-player offering this time around, Respawn Entertainment has knocked it out of the park. Pair it with the satisfying multiplayer and you have a nearly perfect game on your hands.

    The campaign, the gameplay, the free DLCs, the multiplayer modes... Titanfall 2 is bigger and better, and one of the best shooters of the year.

    With bolstered progression, customization, variety, and a fleshed-out story, Respawn has made good on its original vision with Titanfall 2. And bottom line, it’s just damn fun to play.

    Titanfall 2 builds on the promises of the first game in every way imaginable. Rewarding gameplay innovations remain intact, providing consistent thrills in both multiplayer matches and the campaign. Fans of the genre will find themselves blown away by the unique level design, even if the narrative fails to stand tall.

    Titanfall 2 is a great evolution of the previous game. The single player Campaign is short but brilliant and the multiplayer experience is smooth and intense. This time the level design is a little bit worse, but every match is still fun and entertaining.

    Titanfall 2 is the sequel that Titanfall fans wanted. A great and satisfying single player campaign. A filled out and content rich multiplayer. And a host of new titans with their own characteristics and specialties. Titanfall 2 is definitely a winner.

    Both in its single player campaign and its multiplayer modes, Titanfall 2 has a more measured pace than its predecessor, making the build-up to its climactic battles just as enticing as the events themselves. It's every bit as kinetic and fluid as the first Titanfall--but in many respects, it's a much better shooter.

    Titanfall 2 is everything you would expect from a sequel. Packed with more adrenaline, tons of action and new titans. The new multiplayer progression system is a major change along with the new campaign. Titanfall 2 feels like a step forward into the franchise.

    Despite some balancing problems, Titanfall 2 is a great game, with a solid single player campaign and a lot of fun when it's time to go online.

    Titanfall 2 has a spectacular campaign and a multiplayer that has been redesigned to provide a better experience. Even with its problems, as a short campaign or old graphics, Titanfall 2 is one of those games that you have to play.

    Titanfall 2 comes across as a beefier experience overall. The multiplayer mode hits the mark almost on every level while addressing most of the complaints gamers had with the original game. On top of that, now you have a proper campaign, which may not be very memorable but serves as a nice addition and a testament to Respawn's commitment to its fans.

    Overall, I had fun with my time with Titanfall 2. The single player campaign is a huge improvement over that in the original game, and although it starts slowly it does eventually come around and provide for some enjoyable gameplay. The multiplayer gameplay is a lot of fun, both as a pilot and at the controls of a Titan, but a lack of modes may ultimately hurt the game's longevity.

    Titanfall’s now-classic speed works so well in this game - Respawn has studied everything that made the original game so enjoyable in multiplayer and built a solid story experience around those elements. The multiplayer is evolving, and whilst some may argue it's getting top-heavy, we truly believe that every alteration Respawn has made to the core Titanfall experience has been for the better, resulting in a stronger, better and more robust sequel.

    Titanfall 2 barely even distinguishes itself from the first game, with combat that largely feels familiar, and its biggest changes hindered my experience, rather than improved it. I still think Titanfall 2 is far more exciting and dynamic than its closest twitch-FPS competition. However, with its signature feature, Titans, being reduced to little more than squishy power-ups, Titanfall 2 does less to stand out in a busy crowd than Titanfall 1.

    Titanfall 2 has made good on its promise of a worthy single-player campaign. It is rather short, however, and this combined with the relative lack of variety and modular Titans in the multiplayer modes equals a low replay value.

    Titanfall 2 offers players an amazing campaign, but the multiplayer is very disappointing. This makes the game just average overall, which is a waste because it could have been so much better.

    Titanfall 2 is a fun game. Even though it has a short campaign, I had a great time playing it. Multiplayer is fun thanks to the game’s amazing gameplay, but lack of balancing and awkward level design make it a forgettable experience. I can easily say that Titanfall 2 is a good game, but its lack of depth will ensure I won’t be visiting it again anytime soon.

    As a sequel, Titanfall 2 is everything it was supposed to be. By extension, that means it isn’t a game changer; it isn’t as inventive or surprising as its predecessor, but then again, it couldn’t be. Titanfall changed the trajectory of the FPS in a powerful and immediate way, and that success isn’t to be simply re-created but iterated upon dutifully. Despite Respawn’s best efforts, the game’s obvious advancements and its spectacular engagement across multiplayer, Titanfall 2 doesn’t offer the same determined focus and balance that defined its predecessor.

    Consistency is a problem for Titanfall 2 in general, and it's a game that seems to struggle with a confident direction for its changes. The end result is a collection of fantastic mechanics across its campaign and its multiplayer that often feel hamstrung by difficult to understand design choices.

    I've got more than 100hrs in first Titanfall, which was in my opinion a really refreshing game to the genre. Because of this my expectationsI've got more than 100hrs in first Titanfall, which was in my opinion a really refreshing game to the genre. Because of this my expectations where very high when I ordered TF2.
    All that I can say right now is that my expectations were even exceeded.
    MP part is at least as fun as in the first game plus better and bigger maps and I love the new perks, finisher moves, new Titans, skins, customizations etc.
    All I can say about the SP Campaign, it's just stunning... really, JUST STUNNING!
    Besides that you always have fun while playing, you can really feel, that Respawn here put 100% in the whole game.

Take a little DOOM, add a touch of DESTINY & a hint of GEARS 4 & you have an almost perfect recipe for an INCREDIBLE GAME. There's loads of textures, detail & colour in the environments & a nice variety of weapons which FEEL GREAT. If I had to name a fault with the game than it would be that AI enemies are a little DOCILE & unresponsive just like in MAFIA 3 & campaign is a little easy on medium level though I'm only 2 hours in thus far. If single player is anything to go by than multiplayer should be a BLAST especially considering the 1080p resolution & 60 frames per second. Happy times for GAMERS :) Full Review »

They have improved upon everything they needed to from the first game, and added a whole lot more. They listened to the criticisms in the beta and fixed every issue without losing their identity. The maps are so easy and so much fun to traverse, and the campaign is incredibly well crafted and thought out. Get this game, you won't regret it. Full Review »
