XCOM Director Jake Solomon Shifts Focus to Life Simulators and New Studio

TL;DR Summary
Former Firaxis director Jake Solomon said that he probably won't make another turn-based strategy game and wants to create a simulation game instead. Solomon explained that he can't stray too far away from his expertise and that system design is important to him. He designed the individual heroes, enemies, and abilities in Marvel's Midnight Suns. Solomon hasn't officially announced a new studio just yet, but he left Firaxis last month after working for the studio for over two decades.
