Description

XCOM: Chimera Squad delivers an all-new story and turn-based tactical combat experience in the XCOM universe.

After years of alien rule, humanity won the war for Earth. But when the Overlords fled the planet, they left their former soldiers behind. Now, five years after the events of XCOM 2, humans and aliens are working together to forge a civilization of cooperation and coexistence.

Welcome to City 31, a model of peace in a post-invasion world. However, not all of Earth's inhabitants support interspecies alliance. Chimera Squad, an elite force of human and alien agents, must work together to destroy the underground threats driving the city toward chaos.

Your agents are unique: each of them equipped with special tactical abilities and driven by a different motivation for joining Chimera Squad. Deploy targeted team members to investigate and combat the dangers that pervade the districts of City 31. Lead Chimera Squad through a new experience that innovates on XCOM's turn-based legacy, utilizing strategy, teamwork, and new breach-and-clear gameplay to complete your mission objectives.

The future of City 31 depends on you.

Unique Alien and Human Agents


Each of the 11 agents have their own distinct personality and tactical abilities, including species-specific attacks like the Viper’s tongue pull.

Specialized and Complementary Classes


Execute devastating combos by teaming the right agents and utilizing cooperative actions. The difference between mission success and failure can depend wholly on team composition.

Re-Envisioned Tactical Combat


Missions are structured as a series of discrete, explosive encounters, keeping the action intense and unpredictable.

Breach Mode


Shape the battlefield to your advantage with a new combat phase that injects your squad right into action. Strategically assign your agents to different entry points and coordinate their assault with a range of Breach-specific skills.

Interleaved Turns


An automatic initiative system slots individual agents and enemies into an alternating turn order, creating new strategic possibilities based on what unit is queued to act next—and what unit is at the greatest risk when they do.

Suspenseful Strategy Layer


Outside of combat, manage the operations of a high-tech HQ, where you must prioritize competing tasks, investigations, and agent assignments in the face of a ticking clock: the constantly rising unrest in the city’s various districts, driving City 31 closer and closer to total anarchy.

Although I usually prefer the classic X-COM formula for its deep global management, Chimera Squad is a refreshing and successful experiment. The shift from a global scale to the micro-management of City 31 works surprisingly well.

​What truly shines here are the character dynamics and the strategic synergies. Unlike previous titles with "disposable" soldiers, having a fixed cast of characters with unique personalities and abilities allows for much more interesting tactical combinations. Finding the right "flow" between different agents' skills makes every encounter feel like a rewarding puzzle.

​It's a tighter, more focused tactical experience that doesn't replace the main series but offers a great alternative for those looking for clever combat and unique team-building.
  • Unique Agent Synergies: Combining different alien and human abilities is incredibly satisfying.
  • Breach Mechanic: The new room-entry system adds a great layer of initial strategy to every mission.
  • Character Depth: Named characters bring more personality to the X-COM universe than generic recruits.
  • Limited Scale: It lacks the grand "global resistance" feeling of the mainline X-COM games.
  • Linearity: The campaign structure is more constrained compared to the sandbox feel of X-COM 2.

I loved this series as a kid. I wasn't disappointed in that either. ;) I recommend it to everyone who loves this style! There are more options in it than you first see. ;) I wish you a good game and relaxation! ;)

If you like XCOM or XCOM 2 you will enjoy this. Don't go into this game thinking it will have huge levels like the previous games but more in the line of it's own title. The game itself is more focused on room clearing which is a really neat idea that I am enjoying because they add just enough differences to make it fun and enjoyable. For 10 bucks it is worth a buy in my book.
  • Breach mod
  • Some animeted bugs
