The release of The Bureau: XCOM Declassified is lower than a month away now, and 2K Games is focusing its marketing on a chain of cryptic live-action trailers. Earlier this week, 1/2 a trailer was released, with the events of the second one half the trailer dependent upon fans tweeting whether or not they wanted the clip’s character to seize a gun or a bottle of booze (they selected the booze).

Today, another trailer starring Dominic Monaghan (Merry within the Lord of the Rings movies and the man from Drive Shaft in Lost) as Agent Cole have been released. This time, rather then sitting at a desk and dramatically using a typewriter, Cole is inside the field and in over his head. He reports back to his commander that he’s “spotted one,” presumably relating an extraterrestrial. By the tip of the clip, the fate of Cole is entirely unclear.

The Bureau will hit stores on August 23. Though the sport is a 3rd-person shooter set throughout the 60s of the XCOM series, it also incorporates a “battle focus” mode that introduces several tactical elements seen in last year’s XCOM: Enemy Unknown.
