The Bureau: XCOM Declassified trailer gives up its secrets

The Bureau: XCOM Declassified -- Origin Declassified - YouTube

This is seriously sloppy redacting on behalf of the recently uncovered The Bureau: XCOM Declassified. Oh sure, they wipe the key nouns out of the text screens, but then they intersperse it with cuts of game footage showing everything . Characters, locations, enemies... It's like they actively want people to know about their upcoming game.

We even get hard information on that most dreaded of secrets: the pre-order bonus. It's a free extra mission, titled "The Codebreakers".

The Bureau: XCOM Declassified is due out August 20th.

He eventually joined full-time as a news writer, before moving to the magazine to review immersive sims, RPGs and Hitman games. Now he leads PC Gamer's UK team, but still sometimes finds the time to write about his ongoing obsessions with Destiny 2, GTA Online and Apex Legends. When he's not levelling up battle passes, he's checking out the latest tactics game or dipping back into Guild Wars 2. He's largely responsible for the whole Tub Geralt thing, but still isn't sorry.
