More free content is close at hand for Titanfall 2 players, with Respawn Entertainment unveiling free DLC in the form of "A Glitch in the Frontier", set to arrive next week. The developer has come out with an impressive, action-packed trailer for the DLC, seen above, showcasing some of its new features.
While last month"s "Colony Reborn" free DLC included a remastered map from the original game, the new DLC brings two brand new maps. Glitch is a medium-sized, wall heavy map closely following the art style of Gauntlet, the single-player campaign"s training mission. The second map is Deck, coming as a Live Fire game mode exclusive, and it puts a heavy focus on close-quarter battles, as well as including open courtyards to speed through.

A popular game mode from the original Titanfall is also making a return with the DLC: Marked for Death. Although it may receive some alterations in Titanfall 2, in the original, a member of each team would be marked as a target for the opposing team with the gameplay revolving around protecting your own team"s target while trying to kill the enemy"s. Every time a team manages to kill the target, it counts as a point towards them, with a prerequisite amount needed to win the match.
In addition, fan favorite M.R.V.N (Mobile Robotic Versatile Entity) NPCs from Titanfall 2"s single-player campaign is making an entrance to its multiplayer as a new faction. These harmless robots were plentiful in the campaign, mainly found doing menial tasks on machinery. Some may even remember the hilarious arc tool stealing moment involving a sad MRVN in one of the missions.
The DLC"s remaining features listed on the DLC announcement page are below:
- Update to the Main Menu
- You will now be able to Gen to 100
- New Gen icons for your callsign
