    [​IMG]RockPaperShotgun talked about Terra Invicta and asked Pavonis Interactive about their plans for it.

    Long War devs' next game is XCOM at a galactic level


    We already knew that Pavonis Interactive, the team behind the RPS-approved, game-changing Long War mods for XCOM and XCOM 2, were working on a complete new game of their own, but seeing as Long War 2 has been in the wild for a while now, I thought I'd catch up with 'em about Terra Invicta. This takes the essential XCOM concept - humans fending off an alien invasion - then expands it to a grand strategy scale.

    "It's a little like what you might imagine the XCOM spokesman's job to be," Pavonis head John Lumpkin tells me, "trying to unify Earth's nations against an alien threat." And then it moves to cover the entire solar system.

    Long War? More like longest war.

    Lumpkin couldn't talk about what, if any, direction we can expect Long War to take in the wake of the XCOM 2's hectic but mostly very good new expansion pack - see our War Of The Chosen review for more on that - but he was able to reveal that "we're now able to devote some resources to developing Terra Invicta."

    They've been quiet on that front for the past 18 months, but with the hardest work of Long War 2 out the way, they're now working on it earnest. "Right we're prototyping some key game systems," says Lumpkin. "We're hoping to have some things to show off early next year." Which is good news, seeing as there's nary of whiff of even a single screenshot right now.
