Here's everything you need to know about Titanfall: Assault
Titanfall: Assault is the second bite at the Titanfall mobile cherry. The second I hear you scream, but what was the first? Well that was Titanfall: Frontline, which got soft launched and then quietly cancelled. So yeah, second. This time around there's a lot more action to sink your teeth into. Again, the game is only in soft launch at the moment, but I though it'd be sensible to give you a heads-up about what the game is, what you can expect from it, and how many titans there are in it (lots). What is it? Well it's a bit like Clash Royale. But it's also a bit like a tower defence game. But it's also a bit like a tower offence game. It's a base versus base scrap to the death with units a…

It's Wednesday. It's come around quicker than usual because Monday was a bank holiday. At least it was in the UK.
