Mistero e Suspence unite in un FPS
[Aggiornamento]
2K Games ci informa che ha erroneamente associato lo sviluppo del titolo nuovo titolo XCOM a 2K Marin confondendo il team di sviluppo omonimo che ha creato Bioshock con qullo appena rinominato in Australia. In realtà è da poco la notizia che 2K Australia ha preso il nome di 2K Marin. Problema di omonimia insomma.

2K Games annuncia con un comunicato ufficiale lo sviluppo da parte di 2K Marin, i creatori della serie Bioshock, di XCOM, uno sparatutto in prima persona, che combina elementi di strategia con una trama piena di suspence e mistero, senza trascurare ovviamente ovviamente l’azione.
“Con BioShock 2, i 2K Marin si sono dimostrati veri maestri dell’FPS e della suspence, e con XCOM re-inventeranno e amplieranno la ricca tradizione di questo importante franchise”, ha dichiarato Christoph Hartmann, Presidente 2K. “I giocatori potranno esplorare il mondo della XCOM da una prospettiva nuova e provare in prima persona la paura e la tensione di questo viaggio narrativo avvincente.”
Il titolo non ha ancora una data di uscita ufficiale. E’ atteso per Personal Computer e console Xbox 360.

Award-winning developers set their sights on re-imagining the suspense, tension and fear of one of gaming’s most beloved franchises only on Xbox 360 and Windows PC
2K Games announced today that XCOM®, the re-imagining of one of gaming’s most storied and beloved franchises, is currently in development at 2K Marin, the studio behind the multi-million unit selling BioShock® 2. Currently in development exclusively for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows PC, XCOM combines the strategic core of the groundbreaking franchise with a suspense-filled narrative and distills it into a tense and unique first-person shooter experience.
“With BioShock 2, the team at 2K Marin proved themselves as masters of first-person, suspenseful storytelling, and with XCOM they will re-imagine and expand the rich lore of this revered franchise,” said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. “Players will explore the world of XCOM from an immersive new perspective and experience firsthand the fear and tension of this gripping narrative ride.”
XCOM is the re-imagining of the classic tale of humanity’s struggle against an unknown enemy that puts players directly into the shoes of an FBI agent tasked with identifying and eliminating the growing threat. True to the roots of the franchise, players will be placed in charge of overcoming high-stake odds through risky strategic gambits coupled with heart-stopping combat experiences that pit human ingenuity – and frailty – against a foe beyond comprehension. By setting the game in a first-person perspective, players will be able to feel the tension and fear that comes with combating a faceless enemy that is violently probing and plotting its way into our world.
