Respawn co-founder Vince Zampella confirmed Titanfall is getting a season pass, in news that isn’t giant-mechs-dropping-out-of-the-sky levels of surprising. Speaking to GameSpot, Zampella revealed there are plans for a variety of updates, both free and paid.
“We’re going to do paid DLC, we’re also going to do free updates,” Zampella told GameSpot. “There are things that we want in the game that we didn’t get to ship in the final game. So we’ll add private matches and things like that for free. There will be some paid DLC. We’re going to do a season pass just because if you buy it up front, it’s a deal. We’re not going to do microtransactions. So a season pass is just buy it up front, and you get a better price.”
Respawn’s multiplayer shooter combines the studio’s FPS heritage with a big dollop of mechanized walkers to pilot and tear stuff up with. It’s coming to Xbox One and PC on March 11, while the Xbox 360 version outsourced to Bluepoint Games is due on March 25.
Asked if Xbox 360 players can expect the same longevity other platforms will receive in terms of upgrades and patches, Zampella said, “We’ll have to sit down with EA and talk about that. My assumption is yes, but I don’t know if I’m the best person to speak for that.”
