    Xcom 2 picks up right where xcom left off, if your a fan of the first game get ready to grind your way through tough battles again! Perma-death makes sure you take your time and plan your strategy for every mission. A+++

    XCOM 2 is incredible. It shattered my expectations coming in and slowly defined 2016 as arguably the best game of the year. It's the best RTS game I've played since Civilization 4. The definitive RTS game on consoles.

    If you ever played Final Fantasy Tactics, that will give you an idea of what this game is going for. Obviously this game is with guns, but quality wise its very good. Extremely fun about 30+ hours of entertainment.

    The XCom games have always ranked among the best strategy games out there, and XCom 2 continues the trend. Great strategy and smooth execution make this one a really enjoyable game to play.

    The game is good. I have stayed up late playing this game many times. My only complaint nothing is explained on what to do and how to progress in the game. Once you understand what to do it is fun and addictive!

    I loved the original XCOM and XCOM Enemy Within, but XCOM 2 continues to improve and brings another exciting game of strategy and base building along with it. I would recommend this to all gamers out there.

    This game improves on everything established by the first game. Combat has more versatility from the first game in form of new weapons, upgrades, and orders. If you liked the first game get this game.

    For fans of Xcom this game is a no brainer. The bugs did kill some of the experience though. Expect load times to get longer as you progress deeper into the game (as long as 10 minutes to load).

    This game is incredibly difficult to the point where I found myself constantly reloading save files over and over to try and beat it so much so that I gave up because it was ridiculous

    If you liked the first xcom (which was a re-imagining of the original XCOM game) then you will absolutely love this sequel, it does add so much more and tweaks the formula for it's benefit.

    I liked that you can customize the characters. Each campaign plays out differently. There is no scripting like COD. There are many missions and they are not redundant.

    This game expands on everything the first created, and does it better. It's pretty tough though, so it's not for those who haven't had much experience with the genre.
