The artists drew inspiration from sci-fi movies including Elysium and Oblivion when creating the game's aesthetic. Compared with its predecessor, XCOM 2 has more emphasis on narrative. To encourage players to play more offensively, the developers introduced time-based objectives to boost the game's pacing.

Gameplay is split between turn-based combat in which players command a squad of soldiers to fight enemies, and strategy elements in which players manage and control the operations of the Avenger, an alien ship that is used as a mobile base for XCOM.įollowing players' feedback on Enemy Unknown, Firaxis added procedural generation of maps and mod support to the game.
