Modiphius unveiled a miniatures game using the XCOM brand last week, timed with Firaxis Games’ 30-year anniversary [1]. The reveal came via a sparse website featuring only a logo and a mailing-list sign-up, with few details about gameplay [1].

Modiphius, known for licensed video game spinoffs and miniatures titles, is the company behind the XCOM tabletop project [1]. They classify the game under their "Five X" line, which includes other tabletop series like Five Parsecs From Home and Five Leagues From the Borderlands [1]. These games have been described as "RPG-lite" experiences, although it is not yet clear if the XCOM miniatures game will follow that format [1].

The announcement so far offers no public information on specific mechanics or scale, leaving many gameplay questions unanswered [1]. Fans of the XCOM franchise will likely await further updates as Modiphius expands on the title.

No release date or additional details have been shared. Meanwhile, interested players can sign up on the reveal website to receive news about the game’s progress and official launch [1].
