Vague trailer points to reveal this Friday.

A new trailer hints at a possible Xcom reveal this Friday. Two conspiratorial videos have just been released, and the first points to a date - April 26 - right at the very end of the trailer (see the top right hand corner of screen). A mysterious package arrived in the office the other day, further adding to the intrigue.

Little is known about what shape the new Xcom game will take. It's original announcement wasn't warmly received, but since Firaxis tackled the strategy side of the franchise, this reboot (whatever form it takes), will likely attract less derision. Both first and third-person versions of the game have been hinted at, but after several delays and changes of direction, it seems like 2K might finally be ready to unveil something.
