Respawn Entertainment CEO Vince Zampella talked with Gameinformer about the first year of Titanfall. The game is on the verge of hitting eight million unique players across all versions of the game.
"I think they're going well, the game was obviously pretty successful," said Zampella. "I think we announced 7 million [entitlements – or unique players] a month ago or so or whatever...We're obviously still selling so we are closing in on 8 million now. So for us, as an early launch on a limited platform we're pretty happy."
"I think the DLC has been pretty successful especially the last one - Frontier's Edge - has been very well received. I don't know what are you hearing about it? I would be interested to hear your take."
Zampella added that the exclusive deal with Microsoft was only for the first Titanfall game and that future games in the franchise might not be exclusive.

They boasted 7 million about a month or two ago. Sounds like alot of people bought it digitally.
New players are largely accounted through used copies, rentals, new accounts, and friendly lending. Plus, the game itself is on PC, 360, and Xbone.
So I'm not sure it's really selling THAT many digital copies, particularly on any one platform. lol Given how low the average player count on each platform is, I'd say I'm probably right to feel this way.
It doesn't seem like this guy is really up-to-date on users because he says ""I think we announced 7 million [entitlements – or unique players] a month ago or so or whatever...We're obviously still selling so we are closing in on 8 million now."
Also, you can probably thank fire sales and giveaways for that ($9.99 on PC multiple times, free on Origin for a time, $19.99 on XB1)
Even PS4 has full somatosensory(ain't need a PS Move a necessary anymore),still XO retailers keep saying PS4 ain't a full somatosensory console which needs controllers,then I googled.MS would make a "good" dictator in authoritarian system for sure that is good at forbidding open press to protect its lies for power over most human beings.
I wouldn't be surprised if this game had the strongest digital sales of any of the AAA games
Titanfall 2 confirmed?
