Modiphius Opens Pre-Orders for XCOM: The Miniatures Game

Modiphius Entertainment revealed that XCOM: The Miniatures Game is up for pre-order ahead of its January 2027 launch, offering a core rulebook, operatives, alien sets, accessories, and resin and HIPS miniature options.

Modiphius Entertainment revealed all of the pre-order options for XCOM: The Miniatures Game ahead of the game's launch in January 2027. The team revealed more details for many of the figures that are on the way, including a couple of new additions to the mix to get people excited. We have the finer details below on what they have up for pre-order, along with a few new images.

XCOM: The Miniatures Game Items Are Up For Pre-Order

The 280-page Core Rulebook, based on the rules of the best-selling Five Parsecs from Home adventure wargame, allows players to lead an elite team of XCOM operatives as they fight across different missions to build XCOM and defeat an alien threat. The hardback, full-color standalone core rulebook features tech, research, and base-building options, campaign and single-player modes, and 33 mission types, including Terror Site, Combat Patrol, and UFO Crash.

Rules also include the ability to play PVP matches with opposing alien or operative squads, or let one player take control of the aliens in the campaign with Alien Commander mode. The game is supported by high-quality, multi-part resin collectors' miniatures. And due to popular demand, High Impact Polystyrene (HIPs) plastic miniature versions will also be available to preorder, for delivery at a later date.

"XCOM The Miniatures Game has been a passion project for many of our team, and we planned a big rollout using resin production from our own factory, as we did with Fallout miniatures when first launched," said Chris Birch, Co-founder of Modiphius Entertainment. "The community attention for XCOM: The Miniatures Game has been so huge, and there have been a lot of requests for hard plastic miniatures, so we decided to offer the sets in both resin and HIPS. We're working with the plastics engineering team at Archon (StarCraft, Dungeons and Lasers) to get the models into tooling and production as quickly as possible."
