XCOM®: Chimera Squad

Best XCOM so far

XCOM Chimera Squad is a very solid, skirmish scale wargame set after the events of XCOM 1 and 2. It bosts many advantages over the other games, although it has simplified base building, which may be a turn off to the derranged masochists who liked X1's pain in the ass base tetris. The narritive is significantly more in keeping with the actual scale of events in gameplay, no more taking on an entire planetary invasion fleet with 4 guys in a trenchcoat pretending to be an army. This time you're fighting various baddies in one single city, baddies powerful enough for the local cops to be unable to match them, but weak enough for it to actually make sense that a team of 4 can beat them. The characters have a lot more personality then in previous games where they were just cardboard cutouts with randomly generated stats. Now each character has unique customization, and all sorts of cool combat options. All in all, a very solid sequil to XCOM's greatest hits!
