In XCOM 2, which follows 20 years after the “bad ending” of XCOM: Enemy Unknown, the aliens have succeeded in invading Earth, and the civilian population has been made to believe these invaders are peaceful beneficiaries.
XCOM 2, originally released in 2016 on multiple platforms, came to the Nintendo Switch in 2020 in this Collection that contains the game's War of the Chosen expansion as well as all of the DLC released for the game (though it offers nothing new or unique for Nintendo Switch owners, which is a shame as this game could have really made use of the touchscreen).įor those unfamiliar with the series, the XCOM games depict an alien invasion story that pits a guerilla resistance group against hostile alien forces who have taken control of Earth. While the XCOM series dates back to 1994, XCOM 2 is actually the second numbered game in the franchise's reboot series, which began in 2012 with the game XCOM: Enemy Unknown. The XCOM series of Strategy-RPGs has long been one of the standard-bearers of the genre, with many of the games I've reviewed in this genre being labeled as XCOM-style Strategy-RPGs, signifying a style of gameplay where the degree of success of attacks is determined by line-of-sight and cover.
