'Titanfall 2' updates: New DLC 'Colony Reborn' brings in new map, weapon, execution; coming on March 30

"Titanfall 2" will be having a new free downloadable content (DLC) coming this week.

On its blog, Electronic Arts reveals that "Titanfall 2" will be having a new free DLC called "Colony Reborn" coming this Friday, March 30.

The free DLC will bring in new map, weapon, and execution. The biggest addition is the new map called "Colony," which makes a comeback from the original "Titanfall" game. "Colony" takes place in a sleepy settler town that features "narrow streets, interiors, and rooftops surrounded by open Titan lanes."

Aside from this, fans will also get to enjoy the new weapon called R-101. This is expected to bring in versatility in its use and is improved further with advanced combat optical gunsights (ACOG) scope. The said weapon is described to be the backbone of human conflict since its first appearance from the Core Systems.

In addition, players will have a new execution called the "Curb Check."
