It's been disappointing to learn that a great game like Titanfall 2 hasn't sold well, but hopefully Respawn's plans for the future will help boost its success and popularity.

They've just announced when and what we're getting in the first DLC drop, which is called "Angel City's Most Wanted" and will launch on November 30. We already knew that it would include the popular Angel City map from the first game, but there are quite a few other goodies in there as well:


• Angel City map: Fans that pre-ordered Titanfall 2 will get access to the Angel City map starting on November 30. All other players will get access to it on December 3.

• Wingman Elite Pistol

• Titan Kits: Get more customisation options for your Titan with these all new kits.

- Ion's Refraction Lens: Splitter Rifle splits five ways.

- Scorch's Scorched Earth: Flame Core ignites the ground, leaving thermite in its wake.

- Northstar's Threat Optic: Enemies are highlighted while zooming in.

- Tone's Burst Loader: Aiming allows the 40mm to store up to three shots to burst fire

- Legion's Hidden Compartment: Power Shot has two charges

- Ronin's Phase Reflex: When doomed, Ronin phases out of danger.

• Pilot Execution: Inner Pieces lets you phase into an unsuspecting victim

• Stats screen

• FAQ menu

• In-game store

Alarm bells might start ringing if you read that last point there, but don't worry. They're not breaking their promise of free maps and modes. This store will only allow us to purchase cosmetic items, such as new skins, camo and Prime Titans.

Respawn also outlined its plans for the rest of 2016, which includes double XP weekends, "twists" on game modes, recognition for the most active player networks, and giveaways every Wednesday. Hopefully this will lead to a healthy and evergrowing community.

Are you enjoying Titanfall 2, or is one of the other shooters taking up your time?
