It seems 2K Games has something new in the works that the company is going to be unveiling very soon. During the recent quarterly earnings call of parent company Take-Two Interactive, Take-Two president Karl Slatoff said that a new announcement is coming soon, as early as later this month, and that the game in question is going to launch in the current fiscal year, before April 2022.

“Later this month, 2K will unveil details of another exciting new franchise planned for launch during this fiscal year,” Slatoff said.

About a couple of months ago, leaks suggested that XCOM and Civilization developer Firaxis Games was working on a new turn-based tactics game similar to XCOM that would feature Marvel superheroes. It’s likely that that’s the game that Slatoff is referring to. Gamescom is set to kick off later this month, so the game might possibly be revealed there.

During the earnings call, it was also confirmed that 2K and Gearbox’s upcoming Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands would be releasing some time between January and March of next year. Read more on that through here.
