The game is coming to the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC next March.
2K Games has just announced the release date for XCOM, a tactical action game set in mid-century America for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC. Players will lead a team of elite field agents into battle on March 6, 2012 in America, and March 9 worldwide. By using a combination of firearms and "sci-fi abilities," they will try to defeat an otherworldly enemy who looks to destroy and rebuild the world in their image.
While a remake, this solid tactics game is one that fans of the genre shouldn't miss.
Tactics Ogre is what you might call a “Tactics RPG.” This means that it’s like an RPG in every way except that battles occur on a pseudo-3D grid. If you’ve ever played Final Fantasy Tactics you’ll know what to expect. I’ve even seen an ad for Tactics Ogre that explicitly said “from the creators of Final Fantasy Tactics.” It’s practically a sequel. Right off the bat I can tell you that if you like that game, you’re definitely going to like this one.
