-PCGAMER- When 2K Games announced its reimagining of the classic X-COM franchise (now called XCOM), many fans were disappointed to learn that the new version would abandon the 1994 original’s turn-based isometric combat in favor of a first-person real-time style. But one X-COM fan, Chris England, seized the opportunity to announce his already-in-the-works homage to X-COM: UFO Defense/Enemy Unknown, Xenonauts. Developed by England’s new independent development studio, Goldhawk Interactive, Xenonauts aims to recapture the glory of defending Earth from alien invaders by downing UFOs, engaging the surviving aliens, and capturing their technology to research and turn against them.
XCOM like games have become very popular in recent years but some of them definitely stick to the original formula closer than others.
Andrew M writes: "Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden is a unique tactics game that leaves you wanting more when it's over. Here are some games that may be enticing to those wanting more of the same once Road to Eden ends."
Humble Bundle's latest bundle features spiritual and actual sequels to beloved classic games, including Shadowrun, Broken Sword, and Tex Murphy.
This and UFO Extraterrestrials 2.
