About XCOM® 2 Collection

About this game

Your XCOM 2 Collection Steam key includes:

XCOM 2
Aliens rule Earth, promising a brilliant future for mankind while secretly hiding a sinister agenda. As the leader of a guerrilla force facing impossible odds, you must ignite a global resistance to eliminate the alien threat and save the hum race from extinction.

XCOM 2: WAR OF THE CHOSEN
The XCOM 2: War of the Chosen expansion adds extensive new content in the fight against ADVENT when additional resistance factions form in order to eliminate the alien threat on Earth. In response, a new enemy, known as the “Chosen,” emerges with one goal: recapture the Commander. The expansion includes new Hero classes to counter the “Chosen”, new enemies, missions, environments and increased depth in strategic gameplay.

RESISTANCE WARRIOR PACK
Customize your squad of resistance fighters with a set of bonus outfits and head gear, as well as custom armor and face camo. Instantly unlock a survivor of the old war as a new recruit in your barracks.

ANARCHY'S CHILDREN PACK
This rebellion-themed content pack introduces more than 100 new exotic customizations for the entire arsenal of armors available to your XCOM soldiers. These options are purely cosmetic and do not alter the stats of a soldier.

ALIEN HUNTERS PACK
Transform the soldiers of XCOM into an elite alien hunting squad with impressive new weapons and armor to face off against new alien Rulers that will pursue your squad across an entire campaign. Additional cosmetic upgrades to soldiers and the Avenger are included, as well as a new epic mission where Central Officer Bradford leads a squad with the guidance of an old friend.

SHEN'S LAST GIFT
Investigate ADVENT’s “Lost Towers” facility where Chief Engineer Lily Shen accompanies your squad in search of her late father’s secretive final project. Discover a unique new soldier class complete with powerful new combat abilities, strategy mechanics, and customization options.

XCOM 2: WAR OF THE CHOSEN - TACTICAL LEGACY PACK
This pack includes a collection of new game modes, maps, weapons, armors, Photobooth options, and more that honors the legacy of the XCOM series.

Key Features:

XCOM ON THE RUN: Take command of the Avenger, an alien supply craft converted to XCOM’s mobile headquarters. New open-ended gameplay lets you decide where to guide your strike team, how to grow popular support, and when to combat enemy counter-operations.

RECRUIT RESISTANCE FIGHTERS: Five soldier classes, each with its own skill tree, let you create specific soldiers for your tactical plan.

TACTICAL GUERRILLA COMBAT: New gameplay systems offer more tactical flexibility in combat. Use concealment to ambush enemy patrols. Loot enemies for precious gear and artifacts. Rescue VIPs and save fallen comrades by carrying them to the extraction point.

A NEW BREED OF ENEMY: A diverse cast of enemies from powerful new alien species to the ADVENT, enforcers of the alien regime, offer a distinct tactical challenge.

RESEARCH, DEVELOP AND UPGRADE: Configure and build rooms on the Avenger to give XCOM new capabilities on the battlefield. Use your Scientists and Engineers to research, develop and upgrade weapons and armor to fit your preferred tactics.

EACH MISSION IS A UNIQUE CHALLENGE: Go on missions around the world, from wildlands to the heart of the alien-controlled megacities, to the depths of alien installations. There are virtually infinite combinations of maps, missions and goals.

CREATE CUSTOM MODS: Community-focused tools allow you to create your own campaign, tactical gameplay, aliens, classes, strategy game features, and share within the Steam Workshop.

ENGAGE IN HEAD-TO-HEAD MULTIPLAYER: Mix-and-match squads of humans and aliens and battle head-to-head on randomly-generated maps.

Great Pack

JD

Excellent collection if you like turn-based strategies. The game is pretty long, so I suggest starting the War of The Chosen expansion, as it is the same story with a few added elements (that add a bit more difficulty to the experience, but it is really fun and hectic). Thumbs up, five ice creams out of 5 freezers, would play again

I love this game! Played it since it was first released and enjoyed every dlc and update. Finished the game more times than I can remember and will continue to play it for a long time. Great replay value because of the great mods that are available.

Its a classic game, well worth the price. I bought this bundle for the expansion packs since it is cheaper than steam, I've had XCOM 2 since release and loved it.

Best strategy game ever

Fanatical User
Verified purchase
XCOM are some of the greatest strategy games ever. I play a lot of strategy and logic games, and honestly, XCOM has a special place in my heart. If someone asks me for a good game, and I know they like stuff like chess, this is my first recommendation. The story is amazing, the character development is interesting, although not overly complicated. Your choices really matter, and there's many ways to go about playing (rather than just having a certain thing you're "supposed" to do, like other strategy games). There's even a mild base building aspect which adds to the fun.

Many hours have been spent (and lost) in defending Earth in this little game. :) Now it may not be as good as the OG XCom or even as the "reboot" of the series, but it is a good game. Highly moddable, and highly recommended by yours truly. :)

Buy it.

My personal favourite game of all time. I spent around 200 hours playing vanilla Xcom 2 on the PS4, put another 200 or so hours into the WoTC expansion on PS4 (easily my favourite DLC as well), and then bought this collection once I got a PC laptop and sunk yet another 200 hours or so into modded gameplay (the Steam workshop community for this game is incredibly expansive). I greatly enjoyed each of my playthroughs over the years. The customization of soldiers is great for getting attached to them and making their deaths impactful. The combat is well-paced and encourages strategy without being overly complicated for new players. The base-building is a tad lacklustre, but the rest of the in-between-mission-gameplay, such as research, skill building, and tech development is quite well done. What you choose to focus on can shape your playthrough, and their is no 'right' answer, allowing for variance on future playthroughs. All together, this is a fantastic collection. It's well worth full price, but it goes on sale often enough that you might want to wait for one.

No flow to the game. Not my type of game, I'm more into a game that flows like a Destiny or Fallout. I regret spending the money.
