2K Games has revealed that an update on the missing-in-action XCOM first-person shooter (FPS) is expected in the coming days. Originally unveiled back in 2010, all has been quiet on the XCOM front since a press outing in June 2011, however the resurgence in popularity of the franchise spurred-on by XCOM: Enemy Unknown has given the team at 2K Marin room to manoeuvre, heading back to the drawing board.
With E3 starting next week, 2K Games revealed the biggest E3 line up they have for the year

COG: A group of industry veterans from the XCOM franchise have teamed up to launch the new turned-based tactics studio Bit Reactor.
From the *new* Xcom franchise. The original was developed by Julian Gollop and Mythos games. He is currently in charge of Snapshot games and his latest take on Xcom was Phoenix Point.
I'm all for more tactics games. played Phoenix Point on Game Pass (ended up purchasing it), it's good...but doesn't have that same XCOM 2 feeling. Would love to see what these guys have to offer
Due to Firaxis’ overall success with the reimagined XCOM series, the XCOM name has become a catchall term for tactical role-playing games in general, which is unfair to the entirety of that subset of games.
The original 1994 Xcom is the one all others are compared to not the fireaxis version. It's also still the best.
Cant we just have another XCOM:Enemy unknown? Cause we dont have enough fps yet...
I recently got a 360 and I can't get enough of playing FPS games with the 360 controller. I know, I know, it sounds stupid but I personally want more FPS games so I can shoot with this controller. Wow, I can't believe I just said that.
Overall, I saw the trailer for the FPS version of XCOM, and I have to say, it doesn't look that bad.
