Game Insight's latest squad-based strategy game will look familiar to anyone that's played XCOM: Enemy Unknown, but that's totally okay.

It's not a cheap replica of that kind of tactical turn-based combat, instead it understands what makes that game great, borrows the core gameplay, and then layers loads more features on top.

X-Mercs: Invasion is expected to arrive on iOS shortly, and will be free-to-play, keep it locked with Pocket Gamer for more details.
