"I've been sitting on some Titanfall 2 information that was shared with me, and I've finally got the go ahead to post. Titanfall 2 will release in October and the Mountain Dew leak is indeed legitimate. They've added a ton of new pilot abilities including the addition of a grappling hook.

"My source said you can use it quite extensively, for getting into your Titan, aiding free-running, or tactical plays such as pulling enemies while they're midair. The pre-order bonus will be a handgun called the Violator. Multiplayer maps are bigger which I can assume they upped the player count to go along with them," reads the Reddit leaks.

Titanfall 2 will also feature a "grounded, dirty and human" singleplayer campaign this time around, and is set to release just two weeks after Battlefield 1's October 21 launch. Although Titanfall 2 will release very close to Battlefield 1, EA is confident that the shooters won't "cannibalize" each other, promising that the FPS games will cater to different audiences.

EA is set to showcase Titanfall 2 during the EA Play conference on Sunday, June 12 at 1 PM PST / 4 PM EST. We'll be sure to keep you updated with all the latest coverage at E3.
