According to recent job listings, Apex Legends developer Respawn Entertainment is currently hiring for an "Apex Universe FPS Incubation Title" that may very well be a single-player game.
As reported by Dexerto, one of the job listings in question is for a Senior Engine/Systems Engineer – C++ that will be a "Senior Systems Engineer (Apex Universe FPS Incubation Title)" that will "design, build, and maintain technology that enables the team to create engaging gameplay and fantastic experiences."
Another job listing for a Hard Surface Artist on this project mentions that Respawn is "looking for a talented and experienced Mid-Level 3D Hardsurface Artist to help build a brand new Respawn single-player adventure."
It's important to note that Respawn is hiring for this "Apex Universe FPS Incubation" title alongside a "New Game Incubation Team" that may or may not be the same game.
For those hoping for a new Titanfall game, it is interesting that Respawn specifically mentions this new project is in the "Apex Universe" and not the Titanfall one, which existed before Apex Legends was ever released. Respawn also specifically said it wasn't working on a Titanfall game as it has "too many other games" at the moment.
In 2021, Respawn was hiring for a "brand-new single-player adventure" in a "unique universe," and it is unclear if these listings have anything to do with the previous ones.
Either way, Respawn Entertainment is very busy as it is working on continuing to support Apex Legends alongside developing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, a Star Wars FPS, and a Star Wars strategy game.
