XCOM 2

XCOM 2 is a strategy game set 20 years after world leaders surrendered to alien forces. The aliens rule Earth, building shining cities that promise humanity a bright future while concealing a sinister agenda and eliminating dissent. XCOM, once the planet’s last line of defense, has been decimated and scattered. You lead its remaining forces as they gather at the edges of the world, where people retain some freedom, and try to ignite a global resistance against impossible odds.

Lead XCOM

You command the Avenger, an alien supply craft converted into XCOM’s mobile headquarters. Decide where to send your strike team, how to build popular support and when to counter enemy operations. Five soldier classes, each with its own skill tree, let you shape individual soldiers to fit your tactical plans.

Fight the alien regime

Combat gives you new tactical options. Use concealment to ambush enemy patrols, loot enemies for gear and artifacts, and rescue VIPs or carry fallen comrades to the extraction point. You face new alien species as well as ADVENT, the regime’s enforcers, each presenting a distinct tactical challenge.

Develop your forces

Configure and build rooms aboard the Avenger to give XCOM new battlefield capabilities. Scientists and Engineers help you research, develop and upgrade weapons and armor to suit your tactics.

Missions around the world

Missions take you from wildlands and alien-controlled megacities to alien installations. Maps, missions and goals combine in virtually infinite ways, making each mission a different challenge.
