XCOM:-Enemy-Unknown-Modernising-A-ClassicIt’s been a long time coming but finally XCOM is getting a sequel, take a look at the this latest community video to see how it’s shaping up.

Just like a bus, fans have been waiting over 10 years for a new XCOM game, and then two come along at once. However unlike the tactical first-person shooter (named simply XCOM), Enemy Unknown goes back to the roots of what made the 1994 strategy classic, so very brilliant.

In this latest community video the game’s designers at Firaxis talk about bringing XCOM into the modern day. Including interactive environments and stunning graphics, courtesy of Unreal Engine 3.

Don’t just sit there listening to me blabbering on about it though, the video is right below for you to check out for yourself. Do you have fond memories of the original game, what would you like to see change / stay the same?

XCOM: Enemy Unknown is set to be released on PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 late this year.
