2K Games has confirmed its XCOM first-person shooter will be re-revealed in “only a matter of days” and has “undergone an evolution” since we last saw it at E3 2011.
“The creative development of this game has been a collaborative process of discovery and iteration,” said 2K in a blog post. “2K’s culture allows our studios the freedom to refine their visions, to explore new ideas, and to deliver the best possible experiences for players. Through this exploration, 2K Marin has refined their vision, and as a result the game has evolved into a high-stakes narrative experience imbued with core XCOM concepts.”
Rumors say the first-person shooter has gone third-person in its absence and adopted a new title, The Bureau.
