Yes, technically 2K Marin is developing the first-person shooter reboot of the turn-based strategy XCOM, but not the team behind BioShock 2.
Instead it’s being held at their Australian offices, which is also regarded as 2K Marin. Why the odd pairing? Don’t know and 2K won’t say yet.
The team Down Under is officially known as ”the Canberra, Australia arm of 2K Marin”, for some odd reason. 2K Games aren’t yet spilling details yet but say they’ll ”be talking about XCOM, the team and everything else in the near future,” reports 1UP.
”By setting the game in a first-person perspective, players will be able to feel the tension and fear that comes with combating a faceless enemy that is violently probing and plotting its way into our world,” blurbs the official XCOM website.
Are you excited about XCOM’s return, even if it’s not a true sequel?
