Most missions start you off in concealment, allowing you to move your soldiers swiftly through the level until you are either spotted by a civilian, alien, or scanning tower. For the citizens of Earth, however, things seem to be going great under the leadership of our new alien overlords, sure there is the odd rumor of people being abducted, but hey conspiracy theorists, gunna theorise.Ģ0 years of alien brainwashing on earth's inhabitants has seen the XCOM project go from humanity’s last hope to being some sort of terrorist style organisation, which has seen the introduction of XCOM 2’s newest mechanic, concealment.
Without giving away any story spoilers, it has been 20 years since the events of the original XCOM project and things have gone poorly for the brave men and women of XCOM. Well prepare thy social media feeds friends, because XCOM is back by way of the appropriately titled, XCOM 2 - and this time it’s personal, well I mean the last game was personal, but this is even MORE personal. Love it or hate it, there is no denying that the XCOM franchise has a loyal and vocal fan base, whether it be with die hard fans doing their fifth “Ironman” playthroughs or newcomers raging about that missed 95% shot, it's fair to say they are going to tell you about it, loudly and frequently.
