The Art of Titanfall 2 Hardcover – November 1, 2016

An excellent book for fans of the series, I wish it was longer! Really cool to see how the designs evolved from the original game. Fingers crossed that we will see a third game someday.

i normally don't read books except for this one best thing I have ever bought

Love it gotta look through it more. Super quality and well built book. Love the art. And cool shots and views of our favorite titans we’ve grown to love. Get your copy pilot it’s worth it. The guide / tip book is good if u want more info and backstory etc

Mi sobrino feliz con el

I would reccomend this to anyone who likes titanfall and/or its art style. I enjoy the insight into game development and them showing unused concepts as well instead of only the content were used to seeing in game. So even if you are highly experienced in Titanfall 2 this book still offers you a breath of fresh air.

Though there is plenty of beautiful art in "The Art of Titanfall 2", I think the focus and spread might have been improved. There are roughly as many pages of the game's somewhat identical firearms as there are of its varied and highly detailed pilots and Titans, and I feel that we only see one iteration of many of the concepts for in-game models. That aside, the written descriptors are concise but well-written, and the book does go into some detail of the creative process at Respawn Entertainment, showing some of the evolution from basic sketch concepts and individual works to final products. The art itself is almost all truly gorgeous- from mecha to starships to robots to alien planets, there's plenty inside to tickle your sci-fi fancy. Respawn's best achievement is the detail and variety, the care they put into their work that shines here. You can see colorful alien fauna flitting through the trees of planet Typhon's jungles, and nearly every scratch, ding, spot of dirt, bolt, joint, piston, and running light on a piece of equipment, Titan, or other vehicle is rendered in full detail and multiple paint and color schemes. It'e easy to get overwhelmed but the base concept is simple enough so as not to give you a headache. There is a longish letter from art director Joel Emslie at the start of the book, and some nice little chapter openers with gorgeous overlays. At the end is a shorter section describing the model-making process Mr. Emslie uses in a tradition begun by the first game of using a combination of random parts, 3-d printing, and sixth-scale action figure components to make physical concept models of some of the characters seen in-game. The combination of familiar and unfamiliar, modern and sci-fi elements ended up defining the visual language of Titanfall, and there are plenty of big pictures of the models, whose descendants are eventually encountered in digital form. All in all, "The Art of Titanfall 2" is a little short, and might well have been better organized, but the end result is nonetheless inspiring.

I liked all of it but my son is featured in the Enviromental section

Titanfall 2 was one of my favorite games of 2016 and one of the most underrated. Bought the Artbook to see the game come to life. In the artbook you read developers commentary on making the game. Early designs for titans, pilots, weapons and locations for multiplayer and singleplayer. See the philosophy in creating the ScFi world of Titanfall 2 with lore to give details of the game's universe things the games couldn't do. Good stuff for fans of Titanfall and ScFi would recommend it.
