Respawn Entertainment, the developer of Apex Legends, is hiring staff for a new single-player Apex Legends FPS game, which they’re calling “the incubation FPS game of the Apex universe.” The new, currently untitled project is described as “a developer’s dream playground with the freedom to innovate made possible by the unique universe he inhabits.” Sadly, it probably won’t be Titanfall 3, even though the series is the starting point for an EA Battle Royale game.
Dexerto spotted several job postings for the project, including a senior systems engineer and a hard surface artist, on Respawn’s job page. The descriptions are pretty vague, unsurprisingly, but they do say that the project will be single-player and set in the Apex Legends universe.
Respawn previously announced that they were working on a new IP, which in January was described by Giant Bomb reporter Jeff Grubb as a “triple-A first-person shooter,” despite it being unclear if it’s the project or not. if it is something separate. usually.
Given that it’s set in the Apex Legends universe, it’s reasonable to assume that the focus will be on mobility and open level design – the role of hard surface artist underscores what Respawn wants someone with experience to “create assets not just aesthetically but also in terms of design, functionality, gameplay and optimization”, which is certainly similar to what we would expect from an Apex-style game.
Since this is a single player game, it will be interesting to see if aspects of the Titanfall games will be present in this new game, such as wall running, which was removed from Apex Legends in an effort to keep the combat simple from the game. multiplayer game. swing. In any case, it will probably be some time before we get concrete details about the exact nature of this project.
Back at Apex, a streamer known for his weird controllers played Apex Legends with voice command. Developer Respawn also recently spoke about the team’s design philosophy and why they think new weapons and legends “should be cool and strong” to encourage new players to use them.
