In an earnings call with investros today, Electronic Arts chief financial officer Blake Jorgensen revealed that the company's upcoming First Person Shooter, TitanFall, will remain exclusive to Xbox and Windows platforms "for the life of the title."

"It's a brand new IP, and it's exclusive only for the life of the title on Xbox One, Xbox 360 and PCs," said Jorgenson in response to an investor's question. The CFO then asserted that TitanFall won't be released on PlayStation or any other platform at any point.

Following the announcement, Vince Zampella, co-founder of TitanFall developer Respawn, revealed that he had always assumed that the game was a timed exclusive and "only found out recently" that this was not the case.

Zampella assured his Twitter followers that other titles in Respawn's pipeline will be released on platforms besides Windows and Xbox.

nobody asking how the same

nobody asking how the same game will be on both xbox 1 & 360?? it's just a 360 game that works on the xb1 console, not an xb1 game (kinda like saying MGS1 was released for PS1 & PS2 and you can play it at higher res on PS2)

For Life huh?

I wonder if being exclusive for life means even if the Xbone fails miserably in the long run. Will they let the franchise die if the console isn't the strongest runner? Ps4 has some serious competition to put up this generation, so X1's success isn't certain, infact I'd say it's wobbly at best. I'm very eager to play Titanfall, but I won't be getting an X1. Hopefully PC means Steam because I'll get it through there if I can.

Sony can't compete? Do you even know the exclusives each side have? BTW, gamming is not only about generic (copy-paste) shooters (this is already to much overrated). I feel sorry for all the fan boys. Just enjoy gamming.

"Look up facetiousness in the dictionary" I remember 10 years ago no one knew what that word was, but now that it's used 50 times a day in trade chat in world of warcraft, and chat channels of every single online game every day, people like to think they're smart by knowing it because it's a "big peoples word" lol. Learn a word that isn't used daily, you're not impressing anyone. Redneck

Wow, you are one angry

Wow, you are one *angry* thirteen year old. You're right - literally nobody used the word facetious ten years ago. Not one person on the entire ******* planet. It didn't even exist. It totally hasn't been in common usage for over a century. The only reason it gained traction was because of a ****** MMO, not because its literally an everyday word that's a core expression of the English language. You do know how completely moronic you sound right now, right? BTW only ignorant, racist, white-trash americans use the word Redneck. They don't exist in the real world. Also, "remember"? What, are you trying to sound smart using a "big peoples word"? People NEVER used to say that ten years ago until ****** whiteboys started jerking off to My Little Pony. Learn a word that isn't used daily, you're not impressing anyone. Cracker.

Uh huh. You keep believing

Uh huh. You keep believing that if it makes you feel better to project your insecurities. Not trying to impress anyone, it's literally a word and normal people don't impress people with "big words" (wtf?) unless they're actually seven years old. So I guess that reveals a little something about you.

You kidding? You think any

You kidding? You think any company making products to sell are in for the charity? Everyone is there for business, meaning they are there for the money and money alone. That's not necessarily bad provided they don't lie and cheat, but a lot of them do lie and cheat.
