Awesome Titanfall

Titanfall 2 introduces not one, not two, but six new mechs. There’s the control-based Legion and Scorch, the fast and accurate Tone and Northstar, the versatile Ion and the melee specialist Ronin.

The fast-paced and mech-infused shooter returns with more distinct weapons and Titans, as well as new game modes and tools such as a grappling hook. Developer Respawn also promises that all of Titanfall 2‘s functional DLC – e.g. maps and game modes – will be free.

Titanfall was one of the big Xbox One launch titles, offering epic mech battles, but decidedly last-gen graphics. Its sequel aims to remedy that, unshackled from the Xbox 360, plus this version is coming to the PS4 too. Here’s our first tiny glimpse at a jumbo mech with a big sword.

Threezero’s Titanfall Atlas action figure is 20.5″ tall and has over 100 points of articulation. It comes with two guns, interchangeable red and blue lights and a 6″ pilot action figure that fits inside the mech’s cockpit. More here.

Ever encounter one of those April Fools’ pranks that sounds so good, and then you’re sorely disappointed to find out it’s not real? This is one of those times. Respawn and EA, get on the phone with Hasbro and make this happen now.
