Julian Gollop’s X-COM spiritual successor, Phoenix Point, has once again been delayed, with the game now expected to launch on Xbox One and PC some time in December.
Phoenix Point – which delivers a blend of turn-based squad combat and base building, and has been described by Gollop as “a continuation and evolution” of the the ideas introduced in his classic 1994 strategy title X-COM – was previously given a release date of 3rd September.
However, in a new blog post announcing the delay, Gollop wrote that, “While the development team [Snapshot Games] is working hard, and Phoenix Point is shaping up really well, we now know we’re going to need more time to get it to meet our very high standards.”
