The alien invaders now rule through a puppet regime called ADVENT, presenting themselves as benevolent while concealing sinister experiments.
Humanity’s defenders have been scattered, and the XCOM project has become a resistance movement operating in secret.
The player takes command of the Avenger, a captured alien supply craft converted into a mobile headquarters, tasked with uniting resistance cells, disrupting alien operations, and ultimately dismantling their control of the planet.
Gameplay alternates between a strategic layer and tactical combat.
On the Avenger’s world map, the player directs research, engineering projects, and squad management, while moving the ship across regions to contact new resistance outposts, intercept supply drops, or counter alien operations.
The strategy layer includes a ticking “Avatar Project” that measures alien progress toward a hidden goal, creating pressure to prioritize missions and sabotage facilities before time runs out.
Tactical missions are turn-based squad engagements that place four to six soldiers into procedurally generated battlefields.
Soldiers act in sequence, each spending actions on movement, attacks, overwatch fire, or the use of abilities and equipment.
Cover, elevation, and line of sight are crucial, with enemies ranging from patrols of ADVENT troopers to specialized alien units with unique abilities.
Many missions begin with concealment, allowing squads to set ambushes before the enemy detects their presence.
Objectives vary, including destroying alien structures, retrieving data, rescuing civilians, or simply surviving long enough for extraction.
Progression emphasizes customization and soldier development.
Survivors of missions gain experience and advance into one of several classes, such as Ranger, Grenadier, Specialist, and Sharpshooter,
About PlayStation 4
The PlayStation 4 (2013) cemented Sony's dominance of the eighth console generation, with a library exceeding 30,000 titles once indie and digital-only releases are counted. Most PS4 games remain affordable for collectors, but limited physical print runs — particularly from smaller publishers and later in the console's life cycle — are starting to see steady price increases as digital storefronts eventually wind down support.
Gamevaro tracks XCOM 2 for PlayStation 4 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding XCOM 2 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS4 release dates back to 2016.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
