Asmussen joined Respawn after leaving SCE Santa Monica a few months ago, he said in an email to Polygon.

Respawn co-founder Vince Zampella also confirmed the news, saying Asmussen is working as a game director.

As Asmussen said he's not working on Titanfall, this suggests Respawn has at least one other project in the works at present - perhaps the expected sequel, which is likely to bring Titanfall to PS4.

Asmussen is rumoured to have been at the helm of a cancelled SCE Santa Monica Studio project that was shelved prior to a round of lay-offs. Whisperers suggest this project's extended development hell explains the regular gap in Sony's triple-A first-party line up. However, VG247's own sources have dismissed a variety of related rumours.

Respawn is an independent developer although it has a very friendly relationship with EA - somewhat controversially.
