"Titanfall 2" is one of the most anticipated first-person shooter video games and it has been confirmed to come with a single-player mode. To the delight of the fans, Respawn Entertainment, the game developer, also mentioned during the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2016 that the upcoming game will include six new Titans and will be ready by October.

Unlike its predecessor, "Titanfall 2" will feature a full-fledged campaign mode and players will find themselves in a large area surrounded by enemies. It is also not chaotic, unlike many games, with all the shouting and explosions. There will be moments of silence to give players the time to access the situation at hand, CNET reported.

"It really isn't your average linear, for lack of a better word, corridor FPS. It's not like you're getting pulled through this series of explosions or people yelling at you. There's going to be very quiet moments where you're taking in a broad environment and you have to figure out how you're going to traverse it," according to the development team.

They added, "Steve [Fukuda, the game's director] says he wants it to feel like a big swimming pool and in the pool are enemies... you're diving in and out. You're attacking from one angle, you're getting out on this side, going around, coming back in, coming out."

"Titanfall 2" will also be featuring six new Titans, which will have their own ability and advantages, but only three were revealed. They are Scorch with the fire ability, Ion with the dash ability, and Ronin, who is good at hit and run tactic, Segment Next stated.

Breathecast mentioned that the controversial Smart Pistol will return to the game. The weapon was not well received when it was introduced in the first game, but the team made some modifications,. The auto-aiming weapon will now have a reduced power and will be appreciated by the gamers in the multiplayer mode.

"Titanfall 2" will arrive on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC on Oct. 28.
