XCOM: Enemy Unknown will receive an announcement "soon", lead designer Jake Solomon has revealed.
Talking at the BAFTA Games Awards 2013, he said to expect it to be revealed in about "a month or so", around the time of the Game Developers Conference and PAX East.
While Solomon didn't provide specific details, the mention of PAX East suggests possible playable content to show at the public event, meaning possible DLC or expansion content.
He added that the game is something that's going to be "committed to over the long term".
Solomon previously revealed that it is working on "something really awesome" for the game in 2013.
XCOM and Marvel's Midnight Suns director Jake Solomon has founded a new studio to make a life sim game. Here's a new interview with him.
Firaxis veteran Jake Solomon hasn't seen mass layoffs like this in his whole 25-year career.
Alot’s changed in 25 years. We have games with $300 mill budgets, people not interested in games other than Fortnite and Minecraft, the older generation of gamers giving up the hobby or dying off, a period of super bad inflation where the industry decided to hike up prices on games, Gamepass harming game sales, GaaS games being pushed left and right with obnoxious monetization and worse looking/playing (Suicide Squad vs Arkham Knight).
The industry is just shite right now. Games ain’t selling, games cost massive amounts, businesses can’t bleed money and this is what happens. Part of it is on them and part of it is on consumers not buying.
XCOM: Enemy Unknown rebooted the series back in 2012, and has since inspired numerous new strategy game series to be born.
If someone gets into this I'd recommend getting the enemy within version. It's got all the dlc included so it's the better version. Wish the author would've atleast mentioned it. I didn't see it.
Fantastic game though. Xcom 2 is top notch also. I've spent countless hours in these games.
Mod tools?
I hope for a sequel. I could see this series maybe come to tablets. I would love a Vita version though.
