With Titanfall being only a couple of weeks away, a lot of related stories have been cropping up, such as getting a free copy of Titanfall in an Xbox One console bundle , a console that’s unfortunately not themed around the game itself, like the one that was rumoured to be a thing late last month (spoiler: it’s not, but that didn’t stop one fan from giving it a try themselves ). At the time of writing, the latest story about Titanfall today is leaked abilities for both the game’s Titans and Titan Pilots.
As reported by MP1st , the leak initially came about on NeoGAF (unsurprisingly) from user RazerUK. If these abilities turn out to be true, both Pilots and Titans will be a force to be reckoned with, as some of the abilities seem pretty bad-ass. However, let’s remember to take a pinch of salt regarding the majority of these abilities, as they haven’t officially been confirmed by the proper authorities (or they haven’t been confirmed through gameplay), so they’re nothing more than rumors at this point, despite how convincing the information may be. However, you may have already experienced some of these abilities if you took part in Titanfall’s Open Beta , so it’ll be safe to assume that they are confirmed abilities. The abilities of which are listed below, and I’ve origanized them to what I think are between both Pilots and Titans respectively for you convenience.
