Horrible, Repetitive Lobotomized game. Not worthy of the XCOM name. Pure crap. An XCOM Fan.

Probably not everyone's cup of tea, particularly if you're a hardcore XCOM fan. But it's still good and enjoyable for what it is. Combat was reasonable, the story was fair. Just don't expect the traditional XCOM experience.

Cool gameplay, lazy presentation, and boring character design, even with aliens. The lack of replayability and a non-existent sandbox is a huge problem. At least for me, that’s a dealbreaker. Dialogue & voiceover? Some of it very cool, but the squad members are either weird or boring. The UI is way too cartoonish, making the game less "cool looking". Even the Xcom1 got it better. The new RPG-like turn order mechanic seemed fine at first but quickly felt the lack of tactical planning due to that, since it limits it deeply. Lack of customisation? Straight up lazy and boring. Yes, again. Though tbh, I'd be cool to play a realistic modern military themed tactical game with some sandbox aspects included with the "Breach Mode" core element. And its knida cool to try Chimera too, just know that its not great and lacking in many aspects.

I freaking love the XCOM series but 2k just decided to continue their run of being f*cking ruining-game assholes. Don't buy it

x com apart from you dont get to make the choices turn order removes all tactics and forces you to just shoot at the next enemy on the list you can kill

Like everyone else, I didn't like it. It wasn't just VA, the art style, and the lore. It was the entire game. But maybe it's me, as I couldn't get into Hollow Knight, Deltarune or Undertale. Sorry guys. My 5 hours were played over 2 or 3 sessions, then I never touched the game again. And I don't plan on. The only reason i got this game was because i wanted to buy XCOM 2, and figured to just buy the 'Ultimate Collection'. Yeah, this game is just generally bad, even ignoring the who stuff about 2K.

A fun spin-off of X-COM2 that is primarily combat and less management layer.

A quite underrated game, in my opinion, although not without its flaws. It plays differently than XCOM, but its solid foundations remain underneath the big changes. A small side project like this is a great way to test substantial modifications to the core formula and, although I dont like it as much as its predecesors, I have enjoyed the experience. Many people have criticised the lore. I agree that it makes little sense, but I think Firaxis always has prioritized gameplay over realism -which I approve-, so I can deal with whatever senseless pretext that lets me play in the XCOM universe with some aliens on my side. The worst thing for me are the dialogs; I find then unsufferably quippy and cringey, but I can skip most of them and focus on blasting ayys so, as a whole, this game is a solid 7/10 to me, Worth purchasing if you are fan of the genre (specially on sale).

Its fun for a while, then you get over a hump and it gets super simple and repetitive. Also, im surprised by how glitchy the game is after all this time. Seems like a cheap cash grab using X-Coms name. Get it on sale

Good fun! A bit buggy and some of the characters are bland but I enjoyed it.

I love this type of story and gameplay like from the 1st Xcom which was war and 2nd was resistance and now this one is about humans, hybrids and aliens living and working together. The gameplay however is alot different then the first two since you have operators which each has different abilities and skills. The only thing that sucks are it doesn't have same features and mechanics so this makes so game very different and kinda boring. Still its a fun game with different style but I'm still waiting for Xcom 3 one day. :(

Anyone going in expecting XCOM 3 will be disappointed, but if you approach Chimera Squad as the spin-off that it was, you should be pleasantly surprised. A far smaller and more intimate affair than than its Bombastic War of the Worlds predecessor, set five years after XComs victory against Advent. Instead of commanding a squad of battle hardened and desperate Rebel Soldiers you now take control of a peace keeping force that acts more as a swat or special forces team, trying to maintain peace and stability in a post-war Earth that is attempting to rebuild not only for the humans but all the Aliens left behind by Advent.

Obligatory TOS BS mention, 2k can eat a fat one. Onto the actual game, its a mess. If you like XCOM, don't play this cause you won't feel like you are playing an XCOM game at all. No strategy here, just mindless combat endlessly. Returning to base is basically just when you can buy new gear and that is it. The combat is also awful, and they clearly know it is bad because the game actively encourages save scumming by introducing a Restart Encounter option, and enemies are always in the same placement so you can try to cheese your way past the Exceptionally poorly balanced combat. The writing is like someone thought they needed to give the script to a Marvel writer, because the game Clearly needed terrible jokes every few seconds. The only likable character is the one who barely talks, and Only because they don't talk much. The plot is also paper thin, just "Oh, XCOM does anti-terrorism now I guess, and you're going to track down gangs in a city because gangs bad." BTW, if you Do make the mistake of buying this game and playing it, make sure to pick the Correct gang to go after at the start of the game, otherwise you'll need to start over your entire playthrough after 8 hours once you find out that you are now soft locked from finishing the game. XCOM is dead now, and this dumpster fire is to blame.

Shame on you 2K, we paid for your games and now you want to spy on us. You showed everyone you have no respect for your players.

Fun spinoff of the x-com series. Recommended before tackling the much harder Enemy Within on X-Com 2 campaigns

Original XCOM devs are now in the developer which made Phoenix Point. Firaxis of Old is gone. 2K also doing shady EULA changes. Woke ass degenerate game. Avoid.

I got this game because I heard it was good. Within the first ten minutes I knew it wasn't for me. Why? The tone is all wrong. First, it is written like many modern games, with dialog that is flat out stupid with folks making dumb jokes while in very serious situations. Then there is the general overall color of the game and the look of the characters that told me this was a woke infested game with the usual tropes and cliches of the ugly women with half shaved heads and thin incompetent male characters that look like they'd fit in better in a modern Jaguar commercial. Stick to the old games. The tone in this one is all wrong.

Looks like classical DEI slop. Extremely unlikable characters...

genuinely underrated peak. and snussy.

Take-two's new Terms of Service is unforgivable

It's a terrible game *and* it's malware/spyware now.

so short it doesnt even have viper romance segment

It's just DARN fun. And the good kinda hard.

If I wanted Marvel slop I'd go to my local cinema.

This game is an insult to XCOM

2K have destroyed the legacy of this franchise...

amazing game

police brutality

fun af

evil companies
