The Bureau: XCOM Declassified
In 2010, the developers announced its new XCOM game as what looked like a straightforward first-person shooter. 2K Games literally stopped talking about the game after E3 2011. It seemed for a while that the game vanished into thin air and that rose up a lot of questions and controversies. But eventually 2K made it official: The XCOM Shooter was publicized and renamed as The Bureau: XCOM Declassified, and officially confirmed for release on August. The foundation of the game that appeared at E3 2011 survived – the setting remains 1962, and you would still play Agent William Carter, the group that will become XCOM is still fighting aliens – but the perspective had shifted from first- to third-person, and the philosophy behind the game changed as well.
