Colour us surprised: we were pretty confident that the original Titanfall would be at the very least announced for the PlayStation 4 by now. If you go back and listen to the Xbox console exclusivity confirmation, the words used were "for the life of the title" – a wishy-washy statement that didn't seem to preclude a 'Game of the Year' type edition from deploying on Sony's next-gen super machine.
Either way, one thing that is becoming clear is that Titanfall 2 will come to all available appliances, and EA executive Blake Jorgensen more or less confirmed as much during a convention in San Francisco earlier today. "Last year it was on the Xbox only; in the future, we haven't yet announced, but we'll probably have another Titanfall game," he said. "It will probably be a bigger footprint than just a single platform. I think that that's a huge positive for us."
Given that the PS4 is far and away the most popular console on the market right now, it certainly makes sense for EA to be hitting the machine with the biggest audience. In fact, we get the impression that its PlayStation Experience giveaway was a sign of the organisation trying to build bridges, as it partnered with Microsoft for practically every single product in its portfolio last year. To be honest, we reckon that it's probably rueing that decision right now.

Meh, I don't care if it comes out for PS4 or not. I'm sure there are some who do.
EA: "Huge positive."
>More money, additional market.
Another lame shooter, even though it was a good shooter.
You know what, as long as it has an actual single player mode, I am down for this
This would be a great move for them. I think a lot of people would buy it just because of the "Hey Xbox, we got your game!" factor (i.e. the main reason I bought this game on PC). I think it's a fun shooter anyway and would buy a sequel (at $30, unless they add a REAL campaign)!
No campaign, no sale for me. This world already has WAY too many multiplayer focused shooters.
@Godsire- Agreed. But I rather try this with the titans than play one more round of call of duty with jet packs.
Battlefield 4 and 5 for me.
It was a great game, the action was fast paced, the parkour was super cool and the gunplay felt right... Oh and the titans were amazing.
Its only problem is that it "died" somewhat fast, the population was very good for the first 3-4 months then it slowly began to die
Great that its coming to the ps4, its an amazing game
@Godsire-
100% agreed.
Interested in this. Not preordering or anything, but will probably pick it up some time if it releases on ps4
Sony can't break that unprecedented relationship MS and EA got going on.
I don't care if it does come to the PS4 or not. But i guess some people like these sort of games(i am just bored of most FPS now)
Regardless it will sell well for sure. I have no great need for it but I wouldn't mind the chance to try it out.
It's the most fun I have had in a online shooter for many years, hopefully the sequel will have a proper campaign and some more co-operative modes to keep it interesting
Wait, this is Push Square, I need a pun: Atlas-t!
