Rumour: XCOM is now a downloadable third-person shooter

Remember XCOM? No, not XCOM: Enemy Unknown. 2K were working on another XCOM title, but progress has remained extremely quiet. A Kotaku reader might have the answer for such silence.

An individual who took part on a recent survey has sent screenshots of what is claimed to be XCOM’s new look. If true, the game has developed into a third-person shooter that is based on squad commands.

The screens aren’t particularly high-spec, indicating this could be a downloadable title. A question on the survey also asked how players would feel if it was available through digital download.

Either way, 2K has understandably noted it won’t comment on the matter.
