‘XCOM: Enemy Unknown’ launch trailer released

We’re just under a week away from the release of Firaxis Games’ XCOM: Enemy Unknown, and as you know, that means it’s time to get a kickass launch trailer that will essentially force you to pre-order the game.

Everything from highly tactical gameplay to close-quarters, in-your-face action is waiting in this strategy game. The creators of Civilization are reinvigorating this cult classic, and the critical praise sprinkled throughout the below video leads us to believe that the final product is a success.
