Storming onto the PC and Xbox One as of March 11, the multiplayer-only (more or less) game is already under plenty of pressure. As Microsoft’s biggest exclusive, Titanfall is being relied upon to give the Xbox One some help in the ongoing console war, and EA is already investing in the future of the brand. But all that depends on the game impressing those who play it early.

We’ve already given our early impressions of Titanfall, built to be a successful shooter from the ground up. Read our review of Titanfall here, or read on to see how the game is faring with critics prior to release.

What do you make of the reviews? Are you happy to hear that the game has managed to impress with its balancing, even if it lacks a traditional singleplayer campaign? Or have your doubts, like many, centered not on the quality of the product, but how it performs once its opened up to a massive player base? Share your own thoughts in the comments.


Titanfall is available for the PC and Xbox One on March 11, 2014. An Xbox 360 release arrives March 25.
