Titanfall: Expedition will be out this month and marks the first DLC for Respawn Entertainment’s first person shooter, adding three new maps in the process. The first two maps have already been revealed and now designer Chris Dionne talks about the third map Swampland in a new blog post. There’s also a new video for the same, which details the making of the map.
“Initial layouts of the new Swampland added a bunch of IMC buildings, temples and massive infrastructure. While that structure created clearly defined paths and gave Pilots safe havens and places to wall-run, the level lost its personality.
“I shifted the dense forest section to the center of the map, and kept three main structures as anchor points around the perimeter. This encouraged Pilots and Titans to pass through the woods as they moved from building to building. The final design push then focused on small changes to enhance those interactions – adjusting sight lines, making interiors more interesting to fight over, encouraging flow, and so on.”
Titanfall: Expedition will release on Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PC.
