Well, we knew that the classic style of XCOM games would continue after the success of last year’s XCOM: Enemy Unknown but we didn’t know that a sequel was so far along in development.

Yesterday, the Korean Games Ratings Board posted a rating for a PC, PS3 and 360 game called XCOM: Enemy Within.

The Korean Games Ratings Board rated the game M per a Google translation though the GRB doesn’t officially have an “M” rating. It does have a 15+ and 18+ rating. Presumably, a M is the latter. The listing also notes that the rating is issued because of violence in the game.

The Steam Database also lists “XCOM EW” under XCOM: Enemy Unknown on the site and given the quiet way this was sprung on us, speculation has turned to Enemy Within being an expansion or DLC for Enemy Unknown.

Whether Enemy Within is a sequel or just an expansion, I’m willing to bet that 2K and Firaxis is going to have more to tell us very soon.
