UFO: Extraterrestrials - Image 1Tri Synergy have just announced that UFO: Extraterrestrials has finally reached gold status. No, that doesn't mean it's gotten more than a million units sold. Reaching gold status, in the context of the video games industry, means that the game has reached its final version and is now ready for mass production.

UFO: Extraterrestrial is a turn-based RTS game set on the distant planet Esperanza in 2025. There's no one correct way to approach any tactical situation, giving players a lot of leeway on how they decide to handle a particular situation.

Couple that level of freedom with weapon and technology advancement at the player's home base that allow for new and improved weapons, armor, and vehicles, and both tactical and strategy fans alike -- especially those who loved the original XCOM -- will be sure to find a great gaming experience in this title.

It's currently slated for digital distribution on May 1 through Matrix Games. A retail store release will follow on the second week of May.
