Free Weekend, New Map Coming To Titanfall 2's Multiplayer
Rather than warping through space or jumping into World War I for your multiplayer fix this weekend, EA wants you to jump into a Titan, through a free weekend and new map for Titanfall 2.
EA Access (Xbox One) and Origin Access (PC) members will be able to play all of Titanfall 2's online multiplayer for free from November 30 to December 4. The free trial will extend to everyone on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC (through Origin) on December 2 and will go until December 4.
This coincides with the free release of Angel City, a returning multiplayer map from the first Titanfall. The remastered map will be available to those who pre-ordered Titanfall 2 on November 30 and December 3 for everyone else. Angel City also comes with other free content along with optional paid cosmetic items. A new Pilot execution, B3 Wingman Elite sidearm, and six Titan kits round out the free stuff. The paid content runs the gamut from paint jobs to callsigns to camo packs. For a more detailed rundown, read the full list here.

Our Take
Whether or not it's because of supposedly disappointing sales for Titanfall 2, this is a great idea. Coinciding the free content with a free weekend is a decent one-two punch to hopefully get more players on board with Titanfall 2's awesome multiplayer.
