I was so excited when I learned that they were bringing this to consoles, and the wait was definitely worth it. I sunk hours into Enemy Unknown and Enemy Within and this takes the ideas that those started, and expands on them exponentially. The game is a bit harder than its precursor, but there are a ton of more and different items you can use, techs to research, and paths for you to take to victory. The graphics look fantastic and the new story has me completely engaged. The only con I've noticed is that load times can be a bit long, but they aren't too bad. I can live with longer load times since you get better graphics, larger and more varied maps, and all new enemies to deal with.

This sequel does something a little different than XCOM 1. It keeps the wonderful turn-based strategy, but the environment and story are now set in a world where the Aliens have taken over Earth, and your XCOM unit is a counter-insurgency force trying to take back the planet. The game ups the stakes in that way, and many more to make a challenging and agonizing (in a good way!) choice-filled experience. Be ready to make choices! :)

Really Optimized Clean UI Right Out The Box The Graphics Are Nice But It Has Really Bad Frame Drops (Like The First One) And This Is Playing The Story Offline Story Wise It’s Really Hard Like Some Missions Leave You With No Choice But To Let Someone Die From Your Team So Don’t Get Attached And Some Missions Are TIMED - This Means 10 Enemies To Kill And 6 Civilians To Save In 5 TURNS - It’s Frustrating And Kinda Makes You Dislike The Game A Bit If You’re A Perfectionist Like Me So I Sold It Half Way Through The Story It’s Still Worth A Buy Just Depends On The Person Playing Ultimately If You Don’t Get Attached To Characters And Like A Challenge + Don’t Mind Timed Missions Than I Would Recommend It
