Phoenix Point delayed to 2019

Phoenix Point, the crowdfunded title that's the spiritual successor to the original XCOM, has been pushed back to June 2019.

The campaign came to Fig a year ago, and was initially set for release this year. Creator of XCOM and Phoenix Point, Julian Gollop, announced the delay, with a new release date of July 2019.

"In order to meet the quality that many people expect and to use the full potential of our expanded team, I've decided to push back our target release date to June 2019."
