The news broke at PAX South earlier today, where Brian Fargo was very light on the details. It will feature turn-based combat, harkening back to the original games. He also confirmed that InXile Entertainment are looking towards Kickstarter for funding; where they’ve enjoyed great success with both Wasteland 2 ($1.5 million) and Torment: Tides of Numenera ($4 million).
