2K and Firaxis Games have announced that the award winning XCOM: Enemy Unknown will be coming to iOS devices this Thursday, June 20th.

The game will be available via the iTunes App Store for the iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad mini, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5 and iPod touch 5th Generation for $19.99. XCOM: Enemy Unknown for iOS is a universal app that includes GameCenter support and utilizes iCloud functionality so players can save games across their iOS devices. While not included at launch on June 20th, the popular head-to-head multiplayer mode in XCOM: Enemy Unknown will be added to iOS at a later date as a free update.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown was a fantastic relaunch of the franchise but $19.99 for a mobile game is really pushing it for me. Anybody plan on picking it up? Let us know in the comments below.
