X-Men: Gold & Blue, all new in 2017 as part of the ResurrXion.

Marvel revealed the team rosters and creative teams via IGN for the two flagship titles coming in April 2017.

X-Men: Gold by writer Marc Guggenheim and artist Ardian Syaf starring Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Old Man Logan, Rachel Grey and Kitty Pryde named as team leader. Pryde will be leaving the Guardians of the Galaxy to come home to lead her fellow mutants. It appears Storm is returning to her classic look from the Chris Claremont/Dave Cockrum/John Byrne era. Guggenheim told IGN the team will face off with a new version of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants in the first arc.

X-Men: Blue by Cullen Bunn and Jorge Molina will star  Cyclops, Iceman, Beast, Angel with Jean Grey as team leader. These are the time-lost original X-Men brought into the present during the Brian Michael Bendis run. Magneto will be a mentor to the team.

The new flagship books will ship twice monthly starting April 2017 according to the IGN report.

ResurrXion will also feature new Jean Grey, Iceman, Cable, Weapon X and Generation X titles. No word on creative teams yet.
