Firaxis Games’ XCOM: Enemy Unknown is in homage to the original XCOM strategy formula, and the team in yet another developer diary explain how they’re making it ‘modern’.
While it’s still turn-based, the battles ‘appear real-time’ with today’s technology giving us greater freedom and control. XCOM: Enemy Unknown releases on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC this year.
Firaxis are huge XCOM fans and their project was quite a surprise as before the only revival of the series was an XCOM shooter from 2K Marin, now delayed into 2013.
