Here’s Everything Included in Today’s Titanfall 2 Update, Monarch’s Reign

Update: The update is now live.

Original Story: Going live later today on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, the Monarch’s Reign Titanfall 2 update has been fully detailed by developer Respawn.

Adding the new Monarch Titan, the remastered Relic map, the Now You See Me execution, and more, here’s the patch notes for Monarch’s Reign:

New Content (Free)

  • Map: Relic
  • New Titan: Monarch
  • New Execution: Now You See Me [Cloak] – Requirement to unlock: Get 10 Pilot executions while cloaked [this is not counted retroactively].
  • New regen callsign banners for Gen 10-100 including prism versions.

New Content (Purchasable)

  • Prime Titan: Ronin
  • Prime Titan: Tone
  • Camos – 20 new camos
  • Callsigns and Patches – 20 Callsigns and 20 Patches [including Nessie and Spicy Boy patches!]
  • Nose Art – 5 new Nose Arts and 1 new Warpaint

Matchmaking and Network Improvements

  • You can now invite friends to Network in-game.
  • Added “confirm” dialogue when inviting a friend to Network.
  • Will no longer show the “invite friends to network” button if it’s not allowed for active Network or if the Network is invite only and the player is not an admin.

Game Improvements

  • Update to Crashsite map – Fixed around 100 instances of getting bumped, bonked, stuck or tripped up. During the clean-up, we also wanted to experiment with more mobility options. To that end we’ve added 8 ziplines to get around the map faster and a few more wallrunning locations.

Titan Balance

General 

  • Titan Meter and Core Meter are now gained when damaging shielded Titans.
  • Slightly reduced Core Meter generation from damage to compensate.
  • Titan executions are no longer blocked by shields.

Ion

  • Laser Shot now requires more energy, preventing you from double tapping opponents.
