Show of the Week: Titanfall 2 and 5 Jacks Ranked in Order of Robot Affinity

Titanfall's rideable robot warriors and puny wall-running pilots return shortly in Titanfall 2 with a new single-player mode to flesh out the tantalising sci-fi backdrop of the first game. Watch all about it in Show of the Week, and subscribe for a show every Friday: http://www.tinyurl.com/SubToOxbox

In the Titanfall 2 story mode you play as Jack Cooper, a pilot who is forced to link with a Titan named BT-7274, after BT's original pilot tragically buys the farm.

It seems the campaign won't be the usual Call of Duty eight-hour firework display, either, presenting instead a Valve-esque mix of platforming, puzzles and combat. We'll even relax our usually hardline stance against first-person platforming because wall-running, grappling and boosting around in Titanfall 2 is so phenomenally satisfying.

As excited as we are for a dedicated Titanfall 2 story campaign, its unmemorably named hero Jack has his work cut out. Not just with befriending a bereaved bot out on the dangerous frontiers of space, but also with setting himself apart when videogames are already crowded with dudes named Jack.

Keep watching to discover Jack's competition in the Jack stakes, and how much more or less compatible these other Jacks might be with potential robot BFF BT.

Titanfall comes out on release date 28 October 2016 on Xbox One, PS4 and PC.
