PCGAMESN - Will Nelson
Dec 22, 2024
The story in XCOM is minimal. There aren’t many cutscenes. The dialogue is sparse. The characters are functional archetypes. And yet, the MicroProse and Firaxis strategy series boasts some of the most shocking, tense, and memorable dramatic moments in the history of PC gaming. This is what makes XCOM special. It’s all mechanics, but out of its fastidiously designed turn-based tactics and combat, you inevitably get personal takes of sacrifice, defeat, and victory - everyone has that one XCOM soldier, that nightmarish, ill-fated mission. While Civilization 7 has Firaxis attention for now, hopefully, XCOM 3 will happen one day. In the meantime, the entire series - every game and DLC - is available for the single price of $10.
