X-COM: Enemy Unknown ESRB Rating Points To Vita Release
2012's X-COM: Enemy Unknown saw release on platforms both mobile and home-based, but it never made it to the Vita. It looks that may be changing.
A rating on the ESRB website lists a Vita version of the game and an updated title – X-COM: Enemy Unknown Plus. Outside of those details, not much else is known, The descriptor for the game's content describes nothing new or any new content outside of what was featured in the original release, but those descriptors just look at the content from a ratings perspective.
X-COM 2 is on the way for PC. You can find out more about the game here.

Our Take
Considering the game saw release on iOS and Android platforms, I'm surprised a Vita version doesn't already exist. I love the Vita and am always excited to see highly-regarded games make their way to the platform – even if they're about three years too late.
