Download for Windows Buy nowFrom trusted partner Softonic review An essential sequel for strategy fans XCOM 2 is a huge sequel. As for Steam Deck support, the game has not been verified for the handheld, but it's playable on the system. While not as beloved as its predecessor, which is lauded as one of the best strategy games ever made, XCOM 2 has managed to attract millions of players since launch and normally it costs $60, so to play it for $5.99 is a steal, especially when you consider the game roughly takes 30 to 80 hours, depending on your playstyle and how much you dive into all the content of the game, which itself is highly replayable. Boasting an 88 on Metacritic, it is a sequel to 2012's reboot of the series, XCOM: Enemy Unknown.

For those unfamiliar, XCOM 2 debuted back on February 5, 2016, and is widely considered one of the better strategy games of the previous generation of gaming.
