Titanfall 3 Rumors Just Got Debunked Hard
Image Credit: Electronic Arts
For about 30 seconds, the internet got real loud about a so-called Titanfall 3 leak. People started whispering about a nearly finished game. A return to pilots and mechs. A shiny Unreal Engine 5 build. Maybe even a single-player campaign. And then—well, then reality stepped in and kicked down the door.
The leak came from a known Apex Legends leaker, who claimed Titanfall 3 was almost done and would be called Escape from the Frontier. Which sounds cool, sure, but also sounds like something made in a school project slide deck. Either way, they listed everything from weather systems to battle passes and a whole Extraction mode. Big dreams.
Then journalist Jeff Grubb came in with a cold bucket of "nope" on Game Mess Mornings and made it clear:
"Titanfall 3 isn’t real. It’s not being worked on. It’s not even close."
Respawn is still fully tied up with Apex Legends, Star Wars Jedi 3, and some unannounced Star Wars strategy game with Bit Reactor. Oh—and a mysterious skunkworks project led by Steve Fukuda, which apparently has mechs in it but is years away. That last part? Probably what caused the confusion. Somebody saw the word “mech” and blacked out in a cloud of Titanfall-shaped wishful thinking.
What Even Was the Leak Supposed to Be?
The original “leak” detailed a whole buffet of features:
Unreal Engine 5
A single-player campaign (cue nostalgic weeping)
A mix of classic Titanfall 2 modes
Some Apex Legends crossover
A live-service format with battle passes
And a main Extraction-style mode
It had all the right words. But again—none of it’s real. Or at least not yet.
Final Blurb
If you’re still holding out for Titanfall 3, you’re not alone. But this leak? It’s not the one. Go replay Titanfall 2, cry a little in the Gauntlet, and then boot up Apex if you really need your Respawn fix. The mechs aren’t coming back anytime soon—but hey, at least the Jedi still are.
