Titanfall: Frontline mobile game gets cancelled in beta
We've learned an incredible amount in the beta test of Titanfall: Frontline, but in the end felt the experience wasn't ready to deliver the intense action-packed gameplay synonymous with Titanfall.
We do agree that this is a valid decision on Respawn's behalf, but we can't help but wonder how anyone initially thought that Titanfall: Frontline would provide this "intense, action-packed gameplay". The game is essentially a card battler, much like Blizzard's Hearthstone. This does't necessarily mean that Frontline is bad, but genre-wise it has nothing to do with the original console/PC Triple-A titles, which are famed for being exciting multiplayer first-person shooters.
The beta servers will shut down on January 20, but Respawn indicates that this won't be Titanfall's first and last attempt to become popular on portable devices:

While it’s never easy to cancel a game, we’re excited to take some of the concepts we saw resonate with players and build off of them in future Titanfall mobile games.
