Fresh from 2K at E3 comes the first trailer for XCOM, along with a bunch of new information about the game.
Join humanity’s struggle against an unknown enemy and step into the shoes of William Carter, an FBI agent tasked with identifying this mysterious growing threat and eliminating it at any cost. True to the roots of the franchise, players will be placed in charge of building a campaign of risky strategic gambits to overcome high-stake odds. Told from a first-person perspective, they will enact their plans through heart-stopping combat experiences that pit human ingenuity – and frailty – against a foe beyond comprehension. Players will feel the white-knuckle tension and fear that comes with confronting an elusive and deadly enemy across battle lines drawn through the homes and lives of the innocent.
Some more features are listed on the game page along with some new screenshots, and you can hit up the video stream or download now as well.

i rekn it's lame that game (& movie) devs always seem to want to start with an existing franchise rather than from a clean slate. like... what has this got in common with the original xcom games apart from the fact there are alien invaders? nothing by the looks!

looks shit imo.

Weren't XCOM games set in the future and it was all turnbased birds eye view games?

(agreeing with demon here).

Sorta. Semi futaristic world after aliens had ruined the planet...sorta.

And yes it was RTS but not turn based with base building throwen in.

THAT however depends on what game you played, this isen't exactly the first rehash of the series, hell there is a space joystick flying version out there somewhere....

the original ufo: enemy unknown (later called xcom: enemy unknown in the euro market) started around 1999 so it was the future in terms of when the game was released (1994)... but the world was supposed to be pretty much as it was then (1999). it was a turn-based, kinda isometric, strategy game. i liked how the original was totally international.... you weren't in the fbi... you were xcom & they recieved aid (or not) from all nations... this seems like it's been dumbed down for the yanks :/
Tollaz0r!

Aye I was excited for a moment, then read the FPS part and all excitement was lost.

UFO series of games worked best when it was a totally turn based squad tactical game. I loved trying to pick out a few choice soldiers and nurse them from day one and have these totally kick arse guys. You had to be careful though, you could clock their stats and make them so good that they reset back to 0 :(
