XCOM 2 is the latest installment of a saga that started with UFO: Enemy Unknown back in 1994 and that has become one of the most important turn-based strategy series of all times. In XCOM series we usually are in command of an organization that has to fight to defend Earth against an alien invasion, but this time the things have changed. XCOM 2 story takes place 20 years after events in the previous title, XCOM: Enemy Unknown. The council of nations that was supporting the planet defense surrendered to the aliens betraying XCOM and forcing its members to go into hiding. Long time have passed and now aliens rule the planet with the help of ADVENT Administration, a puppet company created to raise the popularity of the aliens and crush any attempts of opposition to their government. But the time to strike back and reveal alien’s hidden agenda has come. As the commander of the resistance forces you will be in charge of gather whatever is left from XCOM and reform it into an organization capable of destroying the alien threat. XCOM 2 gameplay looks very similar to the previous titles at first glance. You manage your command center, recruit soldiers and send them into missions against the enemy. But there is much more than that. First of all you are an illegal organization now. Countries won’t support you openly and you will have to contact with the resistance forces all over the world in search of allies in your war against the aliens. This is reflected in the gameplay. Your command center is going to be the Avenger, a stolen alien aircraft that you will use as mobile HQ, research and training center for your troops. As usual you will be able to upgrade your command center, recruit more soldiers, train them, research alien technology to improve their equipment and weaponry, and all the options included in previous titles. Managing your scarce resources and successfully fend off the attempts of ADVENT of eliminating you is not going to be an easy task. The level of customization of the soldiers has been greatly improved, and their classes have been completely redesigned, with each soldier having its own skill tree and abilities. Grenade launchers and explosives, deadly melee weapons or drones able to hack electronic devices will now be important part of your arsenal. The gameplay and procedural-generation of the mission maps will be influenced by the world’s state. XCOM 2 gameplay reflects that you are now a cast off military rebel organization, forcing you to engage the enemy with guerrilla tactics, with the mission types reflecting those changes. You will be able to play making use of stealth, being able to set up ambushes. Also enemies will be able to deploy reinforcements during the missions making things harder for you. New gameplay options like much more destructible scenarios or being able to carry the bodies of injured comrades to extraction points add a new layer of complexity to the game. As time passes in the campaign, you will be the target of Dark Events, counter-operations from ADVENT that will attempt to thwart your efforts and that will encourage you to change your plans and respond to them. The game supports mods and includes a one-VS-one multiplayer mode. Players will also be able to create campaign, class and enemy types and share them with other players. XCOM 2 is definitely becoming one of the most important titles of the saga, introducing exciting changes to its already solid gameplay. It is a strategy title you can’t miss whether you are a fan of the series or not.
