While it was Firaxis' wonderful XCOM reboot that took all the headlines, developer Goldhawk Interactive's more authentic homage to the original games, Xenonauts, was a strong game in its own right.
Good news for fans of this tougher, more open-ended approach to the alien invasion concept then - Goldhawk has posted on its forum, revealing that the team is seriously considering a sequel.
Xenonauts 2 is a game from a totally divergent branch of the strategy game family tree, with granular attention to fine details.
(MP1st) Xenonauts 2 Hands-On Preview – As punishing as it is engaging, this XCOM-like is bound to please turn-based tactical fans.
If you are a fan of the classic isometric strategy games, especially the XCOM ones, then Xenonauts is something to keep an eye on, since it will be launching in Early Access as soon as next month.
I liked how zoomed in the 1993 Xcom was. It made everything feel more grounded in reality.
