Secret Single-Player Titanfall Game Reportedly Canceled by EA
EA reportedly canceled an unannounced single-player Titanfall game
EA didn’t just kill Apex Legends Mobile and Battlefield Mobile, apparently. Bloombergsources claim the publisher canceled an unannounced single-player game set in the Titanfall and Apex Legends universe. While details of the project aren’t available, veteran developer Mohammad Alavi (who also worked on the Call of Duty series) was reportedly helming the project until he left Respawn in early 2022. EA is said to be finding places for the affected 50 team members when possible.
EA declines to comment. Respawn says it’s shutting down Apex Legends Mobile as its content roadmap is starting to “fall short” of expectations. The studio also delayed Star Wars Jedi: Survivor by six weeks over quality concerns.
The reported cancelation doesn’t come as a shock. The global economy is slowing, and game publishers are among those scaling back to help endure financial turmoil. Ubisoft recently canceled three games amid a gloomy outlook, and Halo developer 343 Industries is dealing with the consequences of Microsoft’s layoffs. Decisions like this theoretically help EA and Respawn concentrate on known money-makers like Apex Legends, which has earned over $2 billion so far.
The rumor is likely to be disappointing to fans if true. The Titanfall games are well-reviewed, but Titanfall 2 arrived seven years ago. A third title in the series eventually transformed into Apex Legends as the battle royale trend took hold. Now, players may have to wait even longer for a new story-driven game in the franchise — if it happens at all.
EA Canceled Single-Player Titanfall Or Apex Legends Game – Report
Electronic Arts has reportedly canceled a single-player game set in the Titanfall and Apex Legends universe. This comes after EA’s disappointing financial outlook for the current quarter.
According to Bloomberg, the unnamed and unannounced game was codenamed Titanfall Legends. It was reportedly directed by designer Mohammad Alavi until he left EA in early 2022. The game’s development team reportedly consisted of 50 people and EA is helping them find other roles within the company. However, those who aren’t given other roles will reportedly be laid off and given severance packages.
EA had notable announcements recently, such as delaying Star Wars: Jedi Survivor to April 28, as well as shutting down production on both Apex Legends Mobile and Battlefield Mobile.

Battlefield Mobile Canceled To Better Deliver On “Vision” For The Franchise
Battlefield Mobile, a free-to-play mobile version of EA and DICE’s multiplayer shooter, is no more. The game ran beta tests in select territories back in November 2022 but will now cease development.
The news comes as part of EA’s Q3 2023 financial results, where it was also announced that Apex Legends Mobile has been canceled and Star Wars: Jedi Survivor has been delayed. Much like Apex Legends Mobile, Battlefield Mobile was planned to operate separately with no cross-play or cross-progression between it and its PC and console counterparts, and would feature its own unique cosmetics, battle pass seasons, and rewards.
“As the industry has evolved and our strategy to create a deeply connected Battlefield ecosystem has taken shape, we decided to pivot from the current direction to best deliver on our vision for the franchise and meet the expectations of players,” a statement on EA’s website reads. “We remain highly committed to unlocking Battlefield’s enormous potential. We’re hard at work evolving Battlefield 2042 and are in pre-production on our future Battlefield experiences across the globe.
