FOX Confirms X-Files To Return For Six New Episodes
March 25, 2015 by brennon
FOX have confirmed that Mulder & Scully are coming back to your screens in six new episodes of The X-Files with both Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny on board to start filming this summer...
The world is filled with plenty of conspiracy theories and unexplained events nowadays so it seems like a perfect time for the show to return. I must admit that I never really got into The X-Files when it was on TV the first time around but I'm all for some investigative speculation and alien nonsense. I should probably start cluing myself in to what's happened already in the show before it returns!
As a gamer however this also brings up some interesting options for the tabletop. I reckon the world of The X-Files would make an awesome one to role-play in. Admittedly you could tweak many different systems to make this work and World of Darkness would be one of them with their Mortal rules.
A board game does exist (pictured above) but it's not very highly rated on Board Game Geek. Could be worth taking a look at it though from IDW Games if you're a die hard fan.
Will you be watching this six episode series?
oh my gawwwd I’m so happy (@_____@)
one of the greatest shows of all time, and one of the main reasons I grew up so paranoid 😛 ha ha
I watched this show religiously as a kid, and have all the old comics, and even the odd film cell too 😉
I wonder if these have anything to do with the “season 10” comics IDW released over the last couple of years ? 🙂
just epic news 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
oh and yeah an X-Files game would be EPIC 😀
a co-op dungeon crawler investigation style game would totally be my jam 😉
Could see someone like GF9 picking up the property for some kind of investigative board game?
yeah that sounds like a sweet prospect 🙂
… almost sounds like a license I could see FFG picking up too 🙂
who knows, maybe some lovely company might read this and have a go at getting the license 😉
fingers crossed 😀
Now I just need Netflix or amazon to show all the old stuff and I will be sorted. Just in case any of them subscribe to BoW.
yeah I’m thinking I might need to binge watch the whole series again on dvd before this hits 😉
I have always LOVED Gillian Anderson… she would be one of my top sexy Hot Tub sharing weekends….
TMI?
lol
Get in line i saw her first ..;-)
I think that definitely qualifies as oversharing there, lafayette. 😉
Fire up the hot tub, Gideon!

Oh to have the chance….I wonder if she likes nerdy Brit guys lol for the record she was amazing as Miss Havisham
“Love her, love her, love her! If she favours you, love her. If she wounds you, love her. If she tears your heart to pieces—and as it gets older and stronger, it will tear deeper—love her, love her, love her!”
Now that’s how to write a book
I have big hopes for this one!
well hears hoping its as good as the first ones.
