Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 11/day in the week to Aug 14 → 18.29/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,420 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Recomendo mas com ressalvas, XCOM Enemy Unknown é bem melhor que esse, nas missões, temáticas das armaduras e armas, inimigos, missões de interceptação OVNI e com poucas missões com temporizadores...terminei ele com vontade de continuar jogando. Esse daqui abusa de temporizadores na maioria das missões, você não tem a mesma liberdade que do primeiro pra completar uma partida. Esse ganha apenas nas novas facções que foram inseridas, no entanto ainda é um bom jogo de estratégia, porém injusto muitas vezes com inimigos poderosos logo no começo do jogo.
Great game.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 11: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Having played the original (the original original, yes I'm THAT old), it remains faithful to the concept and general gameplay, and most importantly, is just as fun! Maybe I'm viewing through the rose tinted glasses of nostalgia, but there's nothing to quite get the heart pumping like the prospect of loosing your most experienced, battle scarred, PTSD afflicted soldier who's career you have followed since he was a mere Rookie, customized, saved their character sheet and bonded with over many playthroughs, due to an enemy mind-controlling a fellow squad mate you believed was virtually impervious to such tactics! Yes it's turn-based, but that is part of the charm. If you are a save-scummer, there is some scope, but every turn uses a set seed, so if you try the same actions you will get the same outcome, which I think is a nice touch, as it can force you to explore different approaches and synergies. I've only just stated a game with all the addons, but generally they seem to be worth it and add an extra dimension to the game, although I would recommend playing vanilla at least once if you are not familiar with the franchise as they add a few new mechanics. Oh, and don't forget the workshop, loads of stuff to peruse there. And finally, there is a lot of replayabiliy built in, some sequences are set but a fair bit is at least semi-randomly generated which adds to longevity. Yes, it might be a bit long in the tooth but it is still a solid purchase, and who knows, maybe one day you'll don you own NostalgaViz :(TM) specs to look fondly back on this iteration?!
amazeing game just make sure alien hunters starting mission is completed at a point where you can handle its bs (also make sure if you want to play war of the chosen to pick that specific launch option)
Fun game and all, but a crash set me back hours thanks to corrupted data. I doubt it's the games fault, but you know what is? The game keeps deleting the saves that I manually do. Now when I loaded back to that uncorrupted ultra hard mission 2 hrs back, I can't load just 5 more minutes back to HQ and get upgrade my squad because the game deleted THAT save too. This is the first time I had corrupted data, but it's not the first time the game has deleted my saves I needed it to keep.
good game
You have to vent, commander
I really enjoyed xcom 1. xcom 2 is an excellent refinement on every aspect of the first. But I am burnt out on team based turn ordering. I feel like it leads to an almost forced rhythm in the way turns need to be approached if you want any kind of efficiency
