The DLC update, nicknamed Angel City’s Most Wanted, includes the free map, a new pistol, new titan kits, and a few more menus. An in-game store selling cosmetics is also being added, and the developer reiterated in the blog post that all maps, modes, and weapons will remain free. The store will sell new skins, camo, and Prime Titans with different chassis and assassination animations “for a modest price,” and can only be bought with real money.

“We will have no in-game currency exchange. No locked loot boxes, crafting shards or pay-to-win weaponry. No RNG,” Respawn said. “If you see something you like, you buy it and that’s it. These in no way effect stats and are purely cosmetic.”

Here is the full list for the Angel City’s Most Wanted update below:

Respawn says it will continue to support Titanfall 2 well through the next year with future content updates and free DLC. Despite sluggish sales, publisher Electronic Arts is sticking by Respawn to build a franchise out of Titanfall. During an investor’s Q&A earlier this month, EA CFO Blake Jorgensen noted that “there’s huge opportunity inside of that franchise to continue to expand it.”
