"XCOM: Enemy Unknown has an awful lot to live up to; the original series still has an incredibly strong and loyal fan following since its mid 90’s release. As we all know, fans who feel that they’ve been betrayed by a new entry into their favourite series can be very vengeful – therefore XCOM: Enemy Unknown has a lot riding on it. Now in the hands of RTS veterans Firaxis, it seems that any worries fans had should melt away when they get their hands on what the Civilization developer has made."
XCOM: Enemy Unknown rebooted the series back in 2012, and has since inspired numerous new strategy game series to be born.
If someone gets into this I'd recommend getting the enemy within version. It's got all the dlc included so it's the better version. Wish the author would've atleast mentioned it. I didn't see it.
Fantastic game though. Xcom 2 is top notch also. I've spent countless hours in these games.
There are few things more gratifying in gaming than skillfully turning the tide of a conflict. And few genres provide as many opportunities to abruptly reverse the odds via skill and forethought as tactical strategy. To be sure, we are more often than not talking about turn-based tactical mobile games, specifically titles in line with the iconic landmark series (XCOM and Jagged Alliance) that made the genre a genre.
Some games age better than others. When a game is getting on in years, mods can help give the game a little push and make it worth playing again.
Honestly looking forward to this game. Hope it turns out to be a good strategy game.
