Titanfall has been enjoying a bit of a resurgence of late. Just a few days ago, EA/Respawn Entertainment suddenly updated the servers for the late 2019 game to a more playable state. Now another new update has players hopeful that there may be something for the future of the franchise.
The latest update included a new game mode simply titled, “???”, with the description reading, “your rockets with vlot out the sun.” Some fans have put together that this is a reference to Frank Miller’s 300, wherein Spartan warrior Dienekes says, “our arrows will blot out the sun.”
That’s not all there is to this, however. A recent update to Apex Legends, the official patch notes page included a line which read,
“Incoming Transmission…. Subject: Nessie…. / 1394521200 / 1477638000 / 1549267200.”
The internet sleuths out there have decoded these lines and determined that they are the release dates for Titanfall 1 and 2, and Apex Legends.
Could this mean anything? Does this hint at a possible Titanfall 3? Should we expect some kind of news on the anniversary for Titanfall 2, which is coming up soon? Only time will tell, but let’s cross our fingers, just in case.
