Overview
XCOM 2 is a turn-based strategy game set in the fantastic XCOM universe. The premise to the story is that there has been an alien invasion and it is up to you to form a task force and save the human race. The game is a part military, part sci-fi strategy game. It offers slightly futuristic variants of familiar weapon classes to use, depending on the soldiers you recruit. The game also has a base management system where you can upgrade your home base. Doing this offers you more options get new soldiers, to upgrade your soldiers and their weapons and skills so that you can improve your chances for defeating the aliens. .
Breakdown
A modern turn-based strategy game
Right now, there aren’t too many turn-based strategy games. While there are some such as the Divinity games, those are more focused on the narrative rather than purely on strategy like XCOM. As a fan of strategy games, I am thankful for XCOM 2 as it has filled that void, and done so really well. For those of you that don’t know how the game works, you choose a small group from your army to go into a mission, and are given specific goals. Each of your characters are given a certain number of points to move and attack the enemy. You have to spend them wisely as you can’t move after attacking, and you don’t want to leave your soldiers vulnerable. More importantly, the only thing that matters is the objective. You can, AND WILL, lose many soldiers that you get attached to. Maybe your very first soldier will have to be sacrificed at the last mission, or risk failing instead. You better be willing to make sacrifices. This risk-based system isn’t seen in many games these days. Most games will be so easy that you never lose a soldier, and if you do, you can always reset the mission and complete it without having to give anyone up.
A full-fledged base management system
You are given the chance to manage your base, and this mechanic is so feature filled that you would think you are playing a management game. You are in a ship with multiple compartments where you can create wide variety of stations for your army. From tech labs to an armory, it’s all there. There are also benefits to placing certain labs next to each other and this creates its own mini-game of sorts. Some players may not enjoy this, but if you are a fan of strategy games (which this is) you will most likely enjoy this additional layer of strategy and planning.
A weird…restriction?
My biggest gripe with XCOM 2 is this weird time limit restriction on a turn. This forces you to rush a bit which defeats the main attraction for turn-based strategy game fans. While it can add to the atmosphere of everything being urgent and difficult, if you aren’t a fan of that system, there is, thankfully, a solution for that: mods.
MODS!
Mods are one of those things that make PC often the superior platform to play games on, and the game has them in spades. The most important mod, something I feel that everyone should play this game with, is the one that removes the turn time limit. This will make the game a lot more enjoyable and open to multiple playstyles, which should make it appealing to most strategy fans.
A modern classic
As mentioned before, this game is set in the fabled XCOM universe and is a sequel to multiple XCOM games which are considered by many to be classics. XCOM 2 had a lot of expectations to meet, and having played XCOM 2, I can comfortably say that this game is a perfect sequel. It will go down as a classic; a must have in anyone’s steam library. This game does everything right from the previous games while also improving on those systems and adding new ones that fit right in with the theme of the game.
A must buy?
In short, yes this is a must buy. In more words, what are you waiting for, just go and buy it! This is a game I would recommend for everyone, even for newcomers to strategy games as this game has a fairly easy difficulty mode that shouldn’t be a challenge to anyone. When you do scale up the difficulty, you get one tough strategy game that doesn’t pull back its punches when it comes to punishing you, but making through it all is all the more satisfying. The only negative is that you need a separate mod to enjoy the game fully without feeling pressured to rush the game, which some players still might enjoy. It’s a great addition to any gamer’s library, and there’s no reason keep yourself from enjoying it.

Best 60Gb of used space on my pc.
Bought this game with all of tbe dlc staright of the bat, and lem me tell you it is worth it.
If you like strategy games you will like xcom 2.
And bonus points for the storytelling that's not right in your face but you get it overtime in conversetion over the coms.

Even for it's love-hate situations it still dominates other games with the same genre of gameplay. No game has the magic like XCOM has.
All cool things aside this game only made me frustrated, the main mission event is a time bomb nagging you to stop the enemy project or you're gonna lose the game. The start was awful, I got short on the supplies immediately, therefore I had to skip a few missions so my squad can heal up. Luckily I started getting PTSD flashbacks from the old game and remembered the pattern. I can't imagine how a newbie would feel like playing this game for the first time.
Most of the missions are turns limited, that means that if you overplay the amount of turns you are supposed to play, you will lose the mission and the squad too. Not fun at all. Also, everything depends on the percentage of how successful your soldier's aim will be, that means lots of save/load situations.
Animations are very useless and time consuming, there is a mod that helps you to skip combat animations but somehow it doesn't work for me. After some hours you're just gonna get so sick of it.

Le jeux à u ntrès bon potentiel est très simple d'utilisation, il offre une nouvelle technique de gestions d'equipes.
Histoire est module intéressant, cependant un gros bug fait vite regretter l'achat du jeu.
Les Sauvegardes ne fonctionnent pas chez 50% des gens qui on acheter le jeu, un bug qui existe depuis maintenant 2 ans est les développeur du jeu s'en battent royalement les couilles car il ne font rien pour corriger cela.
Si vous souhaitez mettre de l'argent que vous ne pourrais pas finir, c'est ici.
Très déçu.

Its a classic game, I had XCom Enemy Unknown for DOS, we couldn't stop play the game with my friend.
This is and the X COM are the similar feeling but new cool 3D design, I like the characters, the gameplay, the graphic, the feeling.

I really like it, it's a very big mood, so my home modder made the language file available, so I finally got the excellent story . For me, the game was a basic work . Thanks for the price! I'm very happy!

The sequel to 2012's beloved XCOM: Enemy Unknown deals in staple sci-fi storytelling and an excellent refinement of the series' turn-based combat.
Everything comes back to the idea you're leading a rebellion against an inscrutable alien enemy. You're outmanned, outgunned and increasingly running out of time. If you were a fan of Enemy Unknown (and if, like most players, you suffered defeat at the hands of the alien invaders) XCOM 2 looks like it's shaping up to be the perfect chance to strike back.

One of my favorits, I like the XCOM-Series since my childhood, it´s a flashback into the past but with better graphics.
I would buy even a next part of the series, if they develope one more or renew an old.

Grande Jogo, Excelente Historia e qualidade gráfica de todas as missões. Muitas formas de alterar os nossos lutadores pelo mundo livre. Na minha opinião apenas falta mais missões para tornar ainda mais o jogo inesquecível.

great game. Not as good as XCOM EU but still maintains the core formula that made XCOM series successful. Can be frustrating sometimes as the game is quite hard. But the game itself is awesome with new units and classes. But please don't name the characters with your family name as they will die eventually :P

Excellent game, can't stop playing. Everything that was good in XCOM 1 was improved in XCOM 2.
Really love the game, you can create your own Character Pool before you launch your game. You can even edit this pool and the new guys will spawn in your current game.
MUST BUY!!

An amazing successor to the XCOM throne. This game takes the best elements of the previous game that fans loved and elevates them: the deployment, customization, building your team, storyline and narrative, enemies, everything is better. As a hardcore fan of the previous games, I approve of what Firaxis accomplished here. PC Master Race reigns supreme :D

The game seems to be overall well made.
Great story , improved alot since 'Enemy Unknown' (Which is btw , still , a great game and something you should defo considering buying.)
But sadly I can barely enjoy it with my current GPU , hopefully in the future there will be further optimizations regarding FPS stabilization and FPS drops , i think its absurd I'm experiencing drops here but I can run BO3 or BF4 , Battlefront (etcetc) smoothly.

Strategico a turni che eredita dal suo predecessore XCom tutti i punti positivi e ne migliora le poche pecche.Si gioca su due livelli: le missioni e la gestione della base. In questo capitolo gli alieni governano il mondo e tu solo puoi liberarlo, Comandante, dalla sua morsa, operando nell'ombra con missioni di sabotaggio, rapimento, distruzione e sfiancamento come è solita fare la vecchia arte della Resistenza e al ritorno spendi oculatamente i fondi e le tecnologie guadagnate per migliorare la base e i soldati. Pianifica attentamente le tue mosse su mappe generate casualmente e piene di elementi distruttibili. Spiega la tua forza di soldati, ognuno con peculiarità differenti. Gioco difficile perché bisogna essere pazienti, chirurgici, lungimiranti e duri, perché a volte qualche sacrificio è inevitabile ( se vi piace la versione Hardcore in cui NON POTETE SALVARE). Ottimo

Tanti alieni diversi da sconfiggere in battaglia, ci si affeziona ai propri soldati. Il sistema di combattimento a coperture è ottimo, anche se a volte capita che colpire o essere colpiti da un nemico sia troppo casuale. Bisogna sempre stare all'erta nella missione che si sta svolgendo perché capita che una missione che stava andando alla perfezione si rovini il turno subito dopo.

Ya habiendo jugado a la entrega anterior XCOM: EU y su expansión,la verdad que con esta entrega me he quedado bastante satisfecho, aunque sigo viendo el fallo del arco de dificultad, pero solo eso.
Ademas se han añadidos nuevas mecanicas, pero sin duda lo mejor que ha podido hacer Firaxis y 2K games, es permitir a la comunidad de modders poder crear con total libertad contenido de mods para los jugadores, que algunos, la verdad, hacen del juego una mejor experiencia, como el LW2, aunque es importante recalcar, que en la expasión WOTC no le dieron soporte, una pena.

Un señor juegazo. Lo he disfrutado de principio a fin con sus DLC. Se trata del típico título que querrás rejugar unos meses después de haberlo superado. Gráficos adecuados. Jugabilidad óptima. Historia dentro de lo que nos tienen acostumbrados los X-Com.
Lo recomiendo encarecidamente.

Vaya timo! este juego te controlan todo, no tienes prácticamente opción a hacer nada por tu cuenta, te guían y agobian cada segundo para que hagas lo que dice la trama. Las anteriores ediciones de XCOM eran mucho mejor, me arrepiento de haberlo comprado!

If you are looking for another good X Com after playing the first one, leave it, these one is way worse. In the game you try to use strategy to outsmart the AI, getting clean shots and hiding behind walls in order to not get shot. It sounds good, right? Well, the problems come when you start missing shots that are above 80% on a basis and sometimes even 100% shots. That is a real issue. Moreover, the enemies hit you like 60% of the times they shoot. On my ca. 10 hours run, either I killed every single enemy without letting them shoot, or they would hit me. All the time, even with soldiers hidden behind big walls, which reduces the hit % by 40 when you are shooting but feels like it adds 40 when they shoot at you.
The other big issue is the performance, you have to really go to the game files to make it playable.
To say something positive, the customization rocks

Uno strategico da must have. Nonostante io non sia un amante dei temi futuristici e fantascientifici ho giocato con gioia XCom: Enemy Unknow e XCom2. L'espansione War of the Chosen lo svecchia e rende qualcosa di completamente nuovo, un grosso punto a favore per la longevità!

Como siempre una joya de la estrategia por turnos. La IA ha mejorado bastante y el diseño de niveles y personajes tambien. Perfecto para una tarde de relax con música jugando. Compatibilidad con mando para jugar desde el sofá.

Für mich das beste Runden-Taktikspiel überhaupt- the chosen macht es noch ein bissl interessanter als xcom enemy unknown. Sonst sehr ähnlich mit hübscherer Grafik.
Hab auch hard west angespielt aber nicht lange weil - war eher enttäuschend.
Xcom 2 + the chosen sind auf jeden Fall eine absolute Kaufempfehlung!!!

XCOM 2 war mein erstes Turn-Based Strategy Game, aber es hat mich direkt in den Bann gezogen. Auch ohne den Vorgänger gespielt zu haben, bietet das Spiel eine wahrhaft runde Erfahrung und ein richtiges Guerillia-Feeling. Die ENDLOSE Anzahl an Mods erhöht den Wiederspielwert enorm.
Besonders am Anfang ist das Spiel unglaublich frustrierend. Ohne sich ein wenig eingefunden zu haben, bekommen die Soldaten heftigst aufs Maul! Ich empfehle deshalb erst ein einfaches Spiel zu starten, um zu lernen und dann auf einem höheren Grad zu spielen.
Durch die vielen Anpassungsmöglichkeiten von Waffen und auch dem Aussehen des Soldaten, der Forschung und Entwicklung usw. hat man sehr viel zu tun. So macht auch alles neben den Einsätzen Spaß und keines der Gameplay-Elemente fühlt sich unnötig an.
Fazit
Zwar ist die Story von XCOM 2 etwas mau (ist aber in Ordnung, sie steht schließlich auch nicht im Mittelpunkt), doch das Spiel bietet eine unglaubliche Tiefe sowie packendes Gameplay, sodass der Kauf jeden Cent Wert ist

Très beau jeu, qui demande beaucoup de réflexion pour ne pas se faire repérer. Après les ennemis sont par moments vraiment trop cheaté et les probabilités de les touchés sont nulles. C'est le défaut qui m'a fait arrêter ce jeu.

Un gran juego. Problemas? Pues que es jodidamente injusto. Los porcentajes no suelen ser los reales. El meta esta guay, y crear los personajes que quieras es la ostia. Aparte tiene muchos mods. Aunque puede frustrar el hecho de que es injusto y la perma death (muerte permanente) Ah y por ultimo el proyecto avatar es muy abusivo

A la base, j'avais quelques réserves concernant Xcom 2. Mais après avoir regardé ici et là quelques avis, je l'ai acheter pour le tester. Et je n'ai pas été déçue du tout. L'intelligence Artificielle n'est pas bête du tout, au contraire, elle s'adapte au moindre de nos mouvements et même la difficulté minimale recèle de nombreux challenge. Il est très important de gérer ses unités du mieux possible et de toujours en entrainer d'autres, car vers le milieu du jeu, si vous ne faites pas ça, vous allez très vite vous retrouver en galère et rager car la partie sera terminée pour vous.
Malgré quelques petites crash, je lui met la note maximale car ce jeu le mérite amplement.

Ce jeu est un bijou du jeux vidéo, car en premier lieu il y a la personnalisation des soldats qui est absolument génial et surtout toute les classes de soldats qu'il y a dans le jeux.
Personnellement j'ai jamais jouer au premier mais celui la est génial.
Mais bien sur dans tout jeux il y a un truc qui va pas c'est le pourcentage de tir qui est aléatoire le gars peut être juste devant toi mais tu n'auras que 25% de le toucher.

El juego está muy bien. No tanto como el primero (a mi gusto), pero lo peor (y por eso esta nota), trae el audio dañado y no se escuchan las voces en los vídeos. Por lo demás, es un juego más que decente. Pero sigo recomendando XCom 1 antes que este.

Se echaba de menos un juego por turnos, muy chulo. La historia no esta mal y la de clases de soldados que puedes tener y modificaciones. Ver como tu base evoluciona y tener que gestionar recursos y economia a la vez que intentas salvar la tierra.

El juego es realmente un reto incluso en su dificultad más básica, tienes que prestar mucha atención a como evoluciona tu pelotón, y la personalización permite sentirte más como un comandante que cuida de su equipo. El juego es una maravilla no apta para gente que se tiltea fácilmente

Parfait ! J'étais fan du premier, et le deuxième est encore plus parfait ! Graphiquement très agréable, c'est vraiment par son gameplay que ce Xcom sort du lot ! Un tour par tour tactique, et sans pitié. Une bande son au top ! Seul les défaut et quelque bug recurrent viennent corser l'affaire./

Fedt spil du kan spille i lang tid uden at det bliver kedeligt. Du har så mange nice valgmuligheder og stress faktoren hvor tiden tæller ned gør det til et meget spændende og intenst spil.
Spillet kræver ikke det vilde så de fleste får optimal oplevelse ud af det.

Super jeu de stratégie avec un univers apocalyptique des cinématiques à couper le souffle, je le conseils pour tous ceux qui aiment le SF et les jeux de stratégie comme total war, il faut savoir que le jeu est un jeu de tour par tour ce qui peut être un peux rebutant mais moi qui par exemple déteste le tour par tour j'ai adoré ce jeu car c'est vraiment différent des tour par tour habituel

De bon graphisme, le jeux nous tiens en haleine tout aux long de l'histoire car rien n'ai gagner d'avance! Le jeu peut être très inquisiteur par rapport aux troupes si nous ne faisons pas attention!
Le jeu peux paraître chronométré avec le projet Avatar!

Una gran mejoría respecto al primero, y de los mejores de su género, puedes editar de todo, solo les falta que pudieras criar a los soldados, pero entonces se transformaría en un SIMS y no funcionaría.

Hammer Spiel es ist sicher nicht einfach aber es lohnt sich zu lernen wie man gut wird. Ich mag Action Games auch aber Runden basierend ist nur Taktiker. Du solltest also 3 Schritte im Voraus sehen können. Viel Spaß

Kann XCOM 2 dem vorherigen Remake der altehrwürdigen XCOM-Serie gerecht werden? Wurde das Problem der Eintönigkeit der Einsätze behoben?
Story:
Der Kampf um die Erde wart verloren, die Aliens siegreich. Daraufhin wurde die ADVENT-Koalition geschlossen, ein fadenscheinige Allianz gleichgesinnter Partner. Doch in Wirklichheit handelt es sich natürlich um eine faktische Diktatur. Somit handeln wir dieses Mal nicht als Geheimorganisation, die die sich steigernde Invasion aufzuhalten versucht, sondern arrangieren uns mit Guerilla-Einsätzen, um der Besetzung der Erde ein Ende zu bereiten.
Technik:
Die isometrische Ansicht wurde deutlich aufgefrischt, gerade die Animationen sowie Wasser- und Lichteffekte machen einen deutlich verbesserten Eindruck. Auch die Cinematics bei Schüssen und sonstigen Aktionen kommen besser und stimmiger rüber und verraten nicht gleich beim Beginn schon den Ausgang der Situation. Lediglich am weiterhin vorhandenen Comic-Look könnte man anecken, dies war aber auch schon beim Remake der Fall und somit wurde wenigstens konsequent ein roter Faden beibehalten.
Die Synchronsprecher gefallen mir wieder einmal ziemlich gut, auch die allgemeine Soundkulisse kommt ansprechend daher. Die Waffensounds sind natürlich weit entfernt von der Realität entlehnt, das war und ist aber auch nicht der Anspruch von XCOM.
Gameplay:
Die Klassen, die im Grunde alle gleich blieben und maximal umbenannt wurden, sind viel variabler geworden. So bietet sich eine deutlich größere taktische Vielfalt. Der Schwierigkeitsgrad ist gewohnt knackig, das finde ich super. Die Guerilla-Szenerie wird die Verborgenheit, die zumeist am Anfang eines Einsatzes vorherrscht, gut dargestellt. Ansonsten bewährte XCOM-Kost, was bisher gut funktionierte, bedarf auch nicht zwangsläufig einer Änderung!
Fazit:
Alles in allem ein mehr als würdiger Nachfolger - neues Szenario, größere Klassenvariation, allgemein mehr Abwechslung in den Einsatzung - hervorragend!

Gioco strategico a turni migliore del suo genere. Grafica curata, ottima trama e tanta tanta tattica. Al momento ho giocato circa 200 ore, ma lo trovo ancora intrigante ed accattivante. Consigliatissimo.
