Titanfall 2 Steam Release is Reviving Its Online Multiplayer Community One of the underrated gems of the FPS genre, Titanfall 2, is starting to see a resurgence thanks to its recent Steam release. Titanfall 2 PC players are literally facing plenty of issues for a while. Whether you’re playing the game on Origin client or Steam client, there are some issues with the game launching and freezing issue. Now, some of the players have started reporting that Titanfall 2: can’t launch the game in the Steam launcher. I got TTF2 for Steam, but I can't launch it as Origin says it is not installed. I have reinstalled the game several times through both Steam and Origin (though Origin just opens Steam and installs through Steam instead).

This week, Apex Legends developer Respawn Entertainment revealed the high-flying, missile-launching Legend Valkyrie. The new fighter has close ties to the characters and story of Titanfall 2, which has resulted in a massive spike in players for the 2016 game.
Valkyrie, AKA Kairi Imahara, is the daughter of Viper, a Northstar titan pilot in Titanfall 2 and a member of Kuben Blisk’s Apex Predators. Player’s fight Viper as a boss on the way to stop the IMC from using a weapon of mass destruction called the Fold Weapon. Blisk would go on to start the Apex Games after the events of Titanfall 2, and Valkyrie would salvage her father’s titan to build the flight suit and armaments she wields in Apex Legends.

Players who wanted a refresher on what happened to Valkyrie’s father, or to experience it for the first time, have flocked to Titanfall 2 in great numbers. Since Respawn began teasing the yet-to-be-revealed Valkyrie’s connections to Titanfall 2 last week, the game’s player count jumped from an average of about 1,500 a day to an average of 15,000 on Steam, according to Steam Charts. In fact, there are more people playing Titanfall 2 now than when the game first came to Steam last year.
Steam is the only game service that has player count statistics publicly visible, so it is unknown what the player counts look like on PlayStation or Xbox. Titanfall 2 was free to PS Plus subscribers in 2019, and Titanfall 2 is free to play on both Xbox Game Pass and EA Play, so it is possible just as many or more players are on the game using those platforms as well.
Valkyrie will be playable in Apex Legends on May 4. The specifics of her kit have yet to be officially revealed, but according to Valkyrie-related leaks her passive ability will let her hover in the air, while her tactical ability will involve shooting a cluster of missiles. Her ultimate will reportedly function like a Jump Tower for her and her teammates, allowing them to relocate across the map at will.
Valkyrie won’t be the only addition to the game come Season 9, as Apex is finally receiving the much-rumored 3v3 Arenas mode. The feature was confirmed with a launch trailer released Thursday, but a full gameplay reveal for the mode is slated for Monday, April 26. Story-wise the mode is being run by Ash, another pilot from Titanfall 2 that players may remember for her chilling personality and ceramic face.
Apex Legends is available now on PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One, with a mobile version currently in beta testing.

This week saw EA bring a number of its games to Steam, releasing existing titles like The Sims 4 and Dead Space 3 for one of the PC platform’s largest marketplaces, and from the looks of it, none of these games are benefiting from the increased exposure quite like Titanfall 2.
It’s no secret that Respawn Entertainment’s sequel hasn’t seen the popularity most major first-person shooters have seen. Released in late October 2016, it had the unfortunate honor of launching right between two of that year’s biggest FPSs, EA’s own Battlefield 1 and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. It was a move many felt was EA effectively gutting the game's sales potential in order to avoid any competition with Battlefield 1.

In the years since, the game has tended to be played by only the most loyal and hardcore of players, but this week’s Steam release appears to have led to a large influx of newcomers. In fact, as of this writing, Titanfall 2 is currently the top-selling game on Steam, beating out perennial hits like The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim and hot new titles like Hardspace: Shipbreaker and Satisfactory.

Eurogamer also reports that the game has attracted nearly 7,000 players on Steam. That number may be pretty insignificant next to the concurrent user counts of the most popular Steam games, but it’s still enough to place Titanfall 2 among the 100 most-played games on the platform. Better yet, 7,000 players is still large enough to make Steam a viable platform for newcomers to try out the game’s multiplayer.

This is hardly the first time this has happened, though, as Titanfall 2 has seen occasional bursts of increased popularity throughout the years, like when the massive launch of series offshoot Apex Legends led to increased interest in Titanfall 2. Most recently, the game saw an explosion of new players on console when it was included in PlayStation Plus’ selection of free games for December 2019.
It may be a bummer for Titanfall fans that the game never really got its due, especially since the general consensus among those who have played it is that Titanfall 2 is one of the finest shooters of recent years, with rich and fluid multiplayer on top of one of the most memorable single-player campaigns in a shooter. If the Steam launch so far is any indication, though, there’s a fair chance plenty of new players will soon be trying it out for themselves.
Titanfall 2 is available for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
