Reborngamers Review :
This expansion is so amazing, variety is the key name for the war of the chosen. We just want to praise the developers for trying to give us so much variety in one single game. Some of the features are Three new enemy bosses, another enemy faction “The Lost “, a few advent troop upgrades. Three New Allied Factions with recruitable heroes and characters, the new bonding between soldiers system, this expansion has so much in it.
Xcom lacked bosses to fight in all its games in the series but this expansion has fulfilled that requirement. So the aliens have 3 New Heroes ( Assassins ).The enemy assassins in this expansion are so challenging, they will surely hunt you throughout the game until you find their respective bases and destroy them. They will harass you, engage in combat whether its a Main or side mission they will be there.
Advent troops also get upgraded units like the Viper King and much more which are much tougher to kill. The assassins will try to upgrade themselves in the game which will make them much tougher to destroy.They have introduced the new enemy faction called “The Lost “, who are humans turned into ferals through alien toxics, these things come in hordes and will never stop coming after you, there's just too many of them, often you have to flee from them.
Xcom has been given a support of three resistance factions. The three new factions are Templars, Reapers, and Skirmishers, you will be able to recruit heroes and characters from the factions to your fighting force.Each faction has its own engaging skills for you to explore. The three friendly factions will provide their own upgrades and help you often with side missions, the most interesting thing about the factions are their playable characters, their skills which can easily overtake Xcom soldiers. They are so powerful compared to your normal Xcom soldiers. The Xcom soldiers get their upgrades through various new types of armor and weapons.
Verdict :
This game is just superb. We will keep replaying this game until the next game in the franchise arrives. This expansion has taken the Xcom series to a new level, so much to do in this game.
