'XCOM 2' Anarchy’s Children Add-on Dated - Screens

by Rainier on March 9, 2016 @ 10:59 a.m. PST

XCOM 2 transports players 20 years into the future, where humanity lost the war against the alien threat that has established a new world order.

The secret paramilitary organization known as XCOM is largely forgotten, and must strike back to reclaim control of Earth and free mankind from the aliens’ rule.

In XCOM 2, the roles have been reversed, and XCOM is now the invading force. They are hampered by limited resources and must constantly evade the alien threat in their new mobile headquarters. Players must use a combination of firepower and stealth-like tactics to help XCOM recruit soldiers and build a resistance network, while attempting to expose the evil alien agenda and save humanity. XCOM 2 will introduce gameplay features such as procedurally-generated levels, which will make each experience unique to the player, as well as offer a much deeper level of modding support. Additionally, XCOM 2 will offer a variety of new content including five updated soldier classes, increased soldier customization, more alien and enemy types, evolved tactical combat and more.


Anarchy’s Children, the first add-on content pack coming to XCOM 2, features more than 100 new exotic soldier customization options, including new hairstyles, face paints, armor, lower face props, decals, helmets, masks and more. With menacing styles that run the gamut from post-apocalyptic to the downright deranged, soldiers will strike fear into ADVENT and the alien overlords.

Anarchy’s Children will be available on March 17th, 2016 and is included as part of the Reinforcement Pack ($19.99), or can be purchased individually for $4.99.
