"Titanfall 2" will come with a single-player story campaign after all, and it's one that fans of science, fantasy and chaos will definitely adore.

During an interview with Forbes, game lead writer Jesse Stern talked about what the new campaign is all about.

"What inspires us is the junction of technological advancement with the inevitability of conflict and war and what the next war might look like," Stern said of the sequel.

"In Titanfall 2 there will be a lot of [scenes] where science meets magic, but keeping it grounded and dirty and human and real," he went on to say.

Stern further explained that the sequel will be a retelling of a "grand global colonial warfare" taking place in space.

The game sees a new generation of immigrants trying to find solace in an entirely new planet. Stern's team has its focus on the technology – the machines and ships – to be used in order for this to work and what happens when they are exploited for sinister things like war.

Apart from the new campaign, gamers can expect a far better multi-player mode in "Titanfall 2" as well.

"One of the shortcomings of the first game was we just did not have the mechanism to tell everyone 'here's who you are, here's where you are and who's around you,'" the "Titanfall 2" lead writer said. "We knew all the answers, we just could not deliver it."

"Titanfall 2" has no release date yet, although it is expected to arrive between April 2016 and March 2017. Stern revealed that his team is "only a little past a year" into working on the sequel, although he hints that they'll get the work done later this year or early 2017.

Stern has revealed that a TV spinoff of the third-person shooter franchise is in the works, but there's no telling if it will ever make it to the small screen.
