For anybody thinking this new game will be anything like XCOM prepare for disappointment.

Jake has previously said that he is leaving turn-based tactics games behind.

And his tweet announcing Midsummer even says "it's going to seem very different from what I've done before."

edit: There is some good news for turn-based tactics fans. Another studio founded by former XCOM devs is focusing on turn-based games.
