Not to be confused with the upcoming XCOM FPS title, Firaxis and 2K Games have released the first behind-the-scenes developer diary for their upcoming rendition of the original RTS XCOM series, XCOM: Enemy Unknown.

Go behind-the-scenes with the Firaxis team as they discuss XCOM: Enemy Unknown in the first of our developer diary series. The game takes place after the events of XCOM (chronicling the aliens' first attacks in the United States in 1962), dealing with the global response to the later full-blown global alien invasion, with the player set in the role of the commander of XCOM, the most elite military and scientific organization on Earth, in a seemingly hopeless war against an unknown extraterrestrial enemy with far better technology and capabilities.

Check out the developer diary below which gives eager players a first-hand glimpse at some of the gameplay and mechanics to be expected in what could be considered a great Sci-fi RTS series. You can also head over to our game page where we have the latest in news, trailers and screenshots.
