In a past article, we talked in detail about the X-Piratez mod. In addition to the official titles, there is the openXcom project that expands the world of UFO: Enemy Unknown in an incredible way, thanks to the community and the mods available. This is the timeline of the official titles: Some remained faithful to the mechanics of the original UFO Defense, while others reimagined the world of X-COM with mixed results. The X-COM series saw many titles even before the 2012 reboot. XCOM earned widespread acclaim, hailed as 2012’s game of the year, and became an inspirational pillar for all turn-based tactics games for years to come.
In 2012, 2k Games acquired the rights of X-COM and, thanks to the skilled team at Firaxis, published XCOM: Enemy Unknown, effectively rebooting the 1993 title. At the time, X-COM: UFO Defense revolutionized the strategy genre by mixing strategic and managerial elements with tactical ones. The current XCOM series is the remake of Julian Gollop’s 1993 title, X-COM: UFO Defense where a semi-secret organization must face an alien threat by carrying out research, building bases, and fighting battles in the air and on land. In any case, out of an abundance of zeal, I’ll explain what it is.
I know, if you’re reading a site called Turn Based Lovers it is a bit unlikely that you will not know XCOM and all that it represents for lovers of the genre. Let’s take a look at everything we know so far about a hypothetical XCOM 3, taken from leaks, developer statements, and a healthy dose of speculation. In that time there has not been even a shadow of news about any hypothetical third chapter of the famous Firaxis series, except for some speculation and interviews that have left a glimmer of hope to the turn-based strategy legend’s many fans. It’s been 5 years since XCOM 2: War of the Chosen, and for fans of the turn-based strategy game, it seems like an eternity.
