2K Games's popular turn-based strategy game XCOM: Enemy Unknown is now available for the iPod touch, iPhone and iPad. The remake of 1994 PC game UFO: Enemy Unknown is one of the most expensive iOS games at $20. Early reviews of the iOS port have been positive, even though there has been some backlash from fans over its price tag.
The developers warn that XCOM is a "graphically rich game with advanced features that is best experienced on the iPad 4 and up". The game is a hefty 1.86GB, so make sure you have plenty of space on your device before you download it. It's also only compatible with newer iOS devices such as the the iPhone 4 and up, and fifth-generation iPod touch.
