In their Q3 2019 Earnings Conference Call, EA seemed to be quite happy with their recent Respawn acquisition. They repeatedly mention Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order as one of their leading upcoming titles, and Andrew Wilson mentioned that Apex had "nearly 600,000 peak and current users in the middle of a Tuesday," and that it was "EA's biggest reveal ever by peak and current viewers." But EA also said that "we will drive the Titanfall universe forward with Apex Legends live service and a premium game later in the year." What EA means by "a new twist on the Titanfall universe" remains to be seen, but seeing how they use the term "premium" every time they mention the upcoming title, it's probably not a mobile spinoff like Diablo Immortal.
And while I don't have more to share on the particulars of what was coming for Titanfall, what I would say is Respawn, our tremendously creative team, they always anticipated that Apex Legends would be a spectacular game in the battle royale genre and that they would use that as a ramp point to continue to innovate and deliver a truly creative take on what Titanfall is in a premium context later on in the year.
