Update: Since the original report, Respawn Entertainment has come forward to shed some more light on the future of Titanfall. The developer put out a tweet to fans, delivering some hope that not all is lost.
In a short but sweet statement, Respawn claimed "Titanfall is the very core of [its] DNA", before adding "who knows what the future holds..."
It's unclear whether this is just miscommunication between the game's community coordinator and other Respawn team members or if it's damage control, but it certainly sounds like Respawn isn't finished with the Titanfall series. We just hope the IP isn't reserved for more Apex Legends content and it instead gets a brand-new instalment.
Original Story: We've been living in hope that Titanfall 3 is on the cards, and despite our attempts at willing it into existence, it doesn't appear to be happening. Respawn has once again spoken out about the possibility of another instalment, crushing fans' dreams in the process.
In a recent live stream with community coordinator Jason Garza (thanks, Dexerto), at the 30:44 mark, he told fans not to get their hopes up about another entry anytime soon.
“Don’t get your hopes up, man. I’ve said this before. We don’t have anything in [the] works. There’s nothing. There’s nothing there. We’ve got too many other games in the works right now.”
Interestingly, Titanfall 3 was one of the titles that appeared in the recent Nvidia database leak. This obviously caused the fanbase to speculate about its existence. However, it was said by a spokesperson that "inclusion on the list is neither confirmation nor an announcement of any game."
We would love another entry, especially considering hackers are frustratingly continuing to attack Titanfall 2's multiplayer. While it may not be on the cards anytime soon, we'll hold out hope for it in the future.

Respawn are probably the most trust worth Studio EA have at the moment so titanfall 3 aside, I'm looking forward to seeing what games they have in the future
Sad news with the way CoD Vanguard is turning out. I need a Arcadey Style FPS where I am not going to get punished for rushing and moving around a map. Looks like those games just don't exist anymore
@Tasuki I would be interested in how Halo doesn’t fall into that category.
@ParsnipHero LOL my bad I should have said military Arcadey FPS. Don't get me wrong Halo is great but the Sci-fi setting doesn't do it for me. Not only that but I also enjoy the leveling up system that CoD has like leveling up the guns and unlocking different parts for each gun, I get a satisfaction from that that I can't get from playing Halo solo.
Halo's great for when you have the guys over and a few beers
Sad that this isn’t happening especially since they also don’t seem to care about fixing Titanfall 2’s multiplayer. T2’s campaign is one of my all time favorites.
I never understood what's the deal with Titanfall. It is very positively reviewed and seems to have lots of fans (online at least). Yet it somehow never made enough money ? So that EA pays good attention to it?
@Tasuki all good! I getcha.
I installed Titanfall 2 a couple of months back on x box and had a blast playing it again.
No issues getting a game and the community seems to be very active still
If you’ve not tried it or have stopped playing you can still jump in and have some cracking multiplayer action.
Sad news there’s no 3 in the pipeline
@BrilliantBill Very poor release timing. Battlefield 1 released October 21st 2016, Titanfall 2 released October 28th 2016 and CoD Infinite Warfare released November 4th 2016 which basically meant Titanfall 2 sales massively suffered because it couldn't compete with Battlefield and CoD. Following on from that, Titanfall 3 got scrapped in favour of Apex Legends and since then all hope of the Titanfall franchise returning died.
I'm sure a third game is a possibility, so their tweet makes sense from that standpoint
@Grumblevolcano Making the first game multi-player only and exclusive to Xbox, at a time that Xbox was doing very badly surely didn't help either in terms of building its fanbase.
They need to make a 3rd! The campaign was the best shooter campaign ever and the multiplayer was so much fun. Please launch it correctly next time and you'll see better success.
