XCOM: Enemy Unknown is a turn-based tactics game that launched in 2012 and reinvigorated a then-stagnant genre.

If you enjoy tactical games like Invisible Inc, the Mario + Rabbids series, Phoenix Point, Marvel’s Midnight Suns, or Persona 5 Tactica, XCOM is a must-play.

In XCOM: Enemy Unknown, you command an elite military squad in a series of turn-based missions that require tactical decision-making.

Deciding where exactly to move each of your soldiers on the map, when to take cover, and when to attack makes all the difference between winning and losing.
