verdict
XCOM 2 is more tense and thrilling than a turn-based strategy has any right to be. There are some great additions to the original gameplay, but the port to console is an imperfect one.
8
Surprising, tense, capricious gameplay
Role as desperate resistance is super fun
Great squad balancing and class skills to choose
Bit of a buggy console port
