According to toucharcade, game play will include solving all those unexplained, paranormal mysteries we've come to love alongside a partner by the name of Agent Dale, perhaps a nod to Agent Arthur Dales from the episode “The Travelers”. Toucharcade goes on to voice the only complaint many of us might have – while the player does not have the privilege to play Scully or Mulder, they will get the chance to follow along with some spooky and unsolved story lines.
Even though the press release states that the release date is not until early 2018, those of you Android users may be able to check the game out right now as it appears to be already available for installation on the Google Play store.
But for those of you on iOS, here is a teaser for the game:
