With the game's earlier debut this year, the latest DLC for "Titanfall" has now been introduced by Electronic Arts and Respawn Entertainment.

Playing "Titanfall" allows gamers to take on the role of highly competent pilots who are then paired up with huge titan robots to battle it out in outer space colonies.

A new three-minute gameplay trailer for "Titanfall: IMC Rising" has been released, showing new maps that will be included in its DLC map pack; these include Zone 18, Backwater, and Sand Trap.

Zone 18, also referred to as The Robotics Lab, will be a distinct addition to the game as it will prompt players to move beyond their common strategies of reaching the highest ground. Players will also be forced to meet each other in a larger and more open field, thanks to the Hammond robotics factory.

The Backwater, or the Bootlegging Colony, offers greater elevation for players to achieve high points as they gain the upper ground. The rice paddies will allow the Titans to fight it out in the open fields. Pilots can also make their journeys underground by means of the grain storage facilities to make a great escape from Titans.

To ensure that players retain the continuous, fast-paced action, the Pilot spaces had been designed to be simple and kept together. Pilots can move through with the use of ziplines, and cross "no man's land" buildings.

Finally the Sand Trap, or the Desert Wasteland, offers rolling sand dunes that will further give Titans plenty of space to carry out their attacks. Pilots can find shelter within an old bunker located way under the sand in the map's center.

Players will see ditches along the sides of the map that will offer easier pathways for pilots to go around and move about. The crude oil found at the bottom of these ditches, however, will cause immediate death for anyone who falls in it.

As a fast-paced multiplayer first-person shooter, "Titanfall" has gained considerable success since it was first released for Xbox One and Microsoft Windows last March 11. This was then followed by an Xbox 360 version made available last April 8.
