Standard-issue XCOM 2 might be my least-favourite of the 4 totally different flavours of XCOM now accessible to us (i.e. together with the Enemy Within and War Of The Chosen expansions), however that’s a bit like saying I don’t get pleasure from 29 levels of warmth fairly as a lot as 26, 27 and 28 levels. They’re all nice! Make it like that on a regular basis, please. Only, y’know, with out the heat-death of the planet. And, yeah, carry on releasing extra XCOMs.
If you’ve prevented Firaxis’ reimagining of The Greatest PC Game Of All Time (If You’re An Old Man Like Me), XCOM 2 is usually a relatively full-on level of entry. On the opposite hand, it’s presently free all weekend (and 75% off if you wish to maintain it eternally), which is the simplest level of entry of all.
It’s free to obtain and play from Steam till Monday March 25, and works on Windows, Mac and Linux. After that, the entire thing will lock up tighter than a feckless prime minister requested about their plan B – except in fact you pay. If you’re pondering of coughing up for a time-unlimited copy, please accomplish that earlier than March 25, as the present 75% low cost places it at a very bargainous £8.74/$14.99/€12.49.
Almost all of the DLC’s 50% off too, although to be sincere the one one which’s actually worthy of advantage is the wonderful, ridiculous War Of The Chosen enlargement, now at £17.49/$19.99/€19.99. (Which nonetheless feels like loads for an enlargement, however it’s dozens, if not lots of, of hours of heavily-remixed alien-bothering).
The Tactical Legacy Pack is the one different DLC humdinger, although sadly that’s not discounted. Six quid ain’t unhealthy, although.
