This list makes me sad as most of the games are only on PC.

Looking forward to Phoinix Point though and it's going to be day one on Game Pass too. Cannot wait!

lptmg2065d ago

I mean, there's also Mario & Rabbids, kinda...

gangsta_red2065d ago

Now I'm even sadder because I also don't have a Switch, thanks!

Games like Xcom? You kinda have to look to the East. You have FFT, Valkyria Chronicles, Disgaea. The West never really pursued this genre, at least not on the AAA level.

gangsta_red2065d ago

Not true as the list proves. Those games on that list are made by western devs they're just mostly popular on the PC and not consoles.

NotoriousWhiz2065d ago

I wouldn't include FFT or Disgaea as "like XCom". Haven't played Valkyria Chronicles so I can't comment.

Already played the console ones besides phantom doctrine. I loved mutant year zero.

From the *new* Xcom franchise. The original was developed by Julian Gollop and Mythos games. He is currently in charge of Snapshot games and his latest take on Xcom was Phoenix Point.

I'm all for more tactics games. played Phoenix Point on Game Pass (ended up purchasing it), it's good...but doesn't have that same XCOM 2 feeling. Would love to see what these guys have to offer
