'Titanfall 2' Update: GameStop Teases Announcements to Come Soon

Ever since "Titanfall 2" was confirmed to be in the works about a year ago, there have been no official statements made by neither Respawn nor EA, but recently, fans are getting excited for a possible release date announcement after a photo was released by a fan.

NeoGAF user funkystudent got the gaming world in a frenzy after he posted a photo of what could be placeholder boxes for the game at his local GameStop store. In the image, the boxes are displayed under the PlayStation 3 section of the store, making some fans wonder what the retailer is trying to imply.

"Titanfall" was released March 2014 for Xbox One, Xbox 360, and Microsoft Windows. Fans on the forum then sparked debate on whether the retailer got itself confused and placed the boxes under PS3 or some internal changes may have occurred during the game's development.

The user also said in his post that GameStop seemed to offer some pre-order promos along with the game's title. Fans then speculated that the retailer may be hinting at some big announcements about the release date in the next few months.

According to GameSpot News, the title doesn't appear on the retailer's website, further making fans think of what the developer is trying to say. There is also not much known about the game, except that it will come as a multi-platform game and will feature a single-player campaign.

Before the image went viral in the gaming community, toy-manufacturer MacFarlane already slipped about the game's upcoming release. According to Polygon, the company said in a recent press release that its games based on "Titanfall 2" will be released on "winter 2016."

While fans speculate that the game will also release alongside MacFarlane Toys figures, EA said gamers will have to wait for further announcements about the specific launch date of the title.

Despite the lack of communication that EA and Respawn Entertainment have been displaying recently about the much-anticipated title, fans are still expecting for the release of "Titanfall 2" before the year ends.
