Now if only we had confirmation as to what platforms the game is coming to.
In the action-RPG X-Men Destiny, you control the fate of a new mutant in the X-Men universe. Every choice has a consequence, as your destiny is determined through the decisions you make as you advance through the game. Play as one of three new characters in X-Men lore, each one of whom must come to terms with his or her unique background and powerful mutant identity while uncovering the truth behind an epic event that threatens to tear apart the tenuous peace between humanity and mutant kind. Evolve and customize your core mutant powers with an opportunity to earn and equip “X-genes” to expand and alter your power base. Choose which path to take in key moments that impact your story and how other characters respond to you. Fight alongside and against famous mutants from the X-Men comics, including Wolverine, Cyclops, Emma Frost and more. Will you choose to follow the teachings of the X-Men to unite mutants and humans, or will you usher in a new age of mutant domination with Magneto’s Brotherhood? YOU decide.

Not a confirmation of the which platforms it will really come out on, but more often than not these listings turn out to be true.
During the company’s Q3 earnings call Activision revealed several titles, aside from a new Call of Duty, that are in development for 2011. None of these should come as a surprise to anyone even remotely familiar with Activision’s annual releases but they are worth mentioning.
