Yesterday Wave Light Games produced some very interesting looking images for their (tentatively named) upcoming title Strike Team.

From the developers of the popular RPG Demon's Rise, Strike Team is an XCOM-style, tactical RPG which is very much more action-point oriented than most games. This simply means that if you want to use up all of your turns on moving instead of shooting or using your abilities, you're more than welcome to.

It's still very early in development – though you wouldn't guess it – but the gist of the story is that you play as an elite human military team attempting to reclaim their ship from hostile, alien invaders.

Viewed from a semi-birds-eye perspective, the game has various levels of height as well as some neat in-game mechanics, such as 'reaction shot' – a response mechanic of which your troops can shoot back at foes that shoot directly at them.

Strike Team has a hesitantly-suggested release of Q2 next year, and though they haven't specified one would assume their platform of choice would be iOS judging by their previous title.

So keep an eye and an ear out and check out Wave Light Games' forum here to find out more.
