The universe of Titanfall pits small against large, nature against industry, and human against machine. The setting is a distant frontier torn by war, where you have the option to engage in battle either as an elite combat pilot or as a nimble, heavily armored Titan over six meters tall. With the ability to constantly switch between pilot and Titan, you have the freedom to spontaneously change your tactics, allowing you to attack or flee as the situation demands. Titanfall is unique because it equally emphasizes two fundamentally different concepts of movement and combat within a first-person shooter. The connection between these elements forms a significant part of Titanfall's distinct identity.
