What if: the new Star Wars strategy game is just XCOM 3?
So it looks like we’re getting more Star Wars games. Three of them, in fact, as Titanfall and Apex Legends developer Respawn Entertainment takes the lead on a trio of new games set in a galaxy far, far away. One is some kind of FPS, another is a sequel to the acclaimed Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, but it's the third one that we're most looking forward to. Hold onto your butts folks, we’re getting a new Star Wars strategy game.
But what form is it going to take? Where is it going to be set? How many Bothans will have to die to bring us this information? We can’t know for sure right now. All we do know is that it’s not being developed by Respawn directly, instead they'll assist with production.
The bulk of development is being handled by Bit Reactor, a brand-new studio staffed by a number of ex-XCOM devs, which aims to “usher in the future” of turn-based tactics games. That means we’re probably not going to get the Empire of War sequel we all want, but what if we get the XCOM 3 we deserve instead?
