XCOM 2

Earth has changed. Twenty years have passed since world leaders offered an unconditional surrender to alien forces. XCOM , the planet’s last line of defense, was left decimated and scattered. Now, in XCOM 2 , the aliens rule Earth, building shining cities that promise a brilliant future for humanity on the surface, while concealing a sinister agenda and eliminating all who dissent from their new order.

Only those who live at the edges of the world have a margin of freedom. Here, a force gathers once again to stand up for humanity. Always on the run, and facing impossible odds, the remnant XCOM forces must find a way to ignite a global resistance, and eliminate the alien threat once and for all.

Prey - Expires 11 Feb 4am AEDT

In Prey, you awaken aboard Talos I, a space station orbiting the moon in the year 2032. You are the key subject of an experiment meant to alter humanity forever – but things have gone terribly wrong. The space station has been overrun by hostile aliens and you are now being hunted. As you dig into the dark secrets of Talos I and your own past, you must survive using the tools found on the station — your wits, weapons, and mind-bending abilities. The fate of the Talos I and everyone aboard is in your hands.

Dishonored 2 - Expires 11 Feb 4am AEDT

Play your way in a world where mysticism and industry collide. Will you choose to play as Empress Emily Kaldwin or the royal protector, Corvo Attano? Will you make your way through the game unseen, make full use of its brutal combat system, or use a blend of both? How will you combine your character's unique set of powers, weapons and gadgets to eliminate your enemies? The story responds to your choices, leading to intriguing outcomes, as you play through each of the game's hand-crafted missions.

    XCOM.2 and Prey are almost worth quitting your job to play full-time.

    They’re great value.

      XCOM is a master piece of turnbased strategy.

  • +6

    XCOM 2 is currently on sale on steam too for $4.49 but either way wherever you get it from the complete dlc pack is on sale on steam too for $12.19 (was $58.29) in case you want to pick that up too

      This is a Steam key, so may as well buy through Humble Bundle for $2.99.

      If you're keen on the DLC, you can add it directly through Steam after.

        Doesn't it work out cheaper to simply buy the 'XCOM 2 Collection' (which includes the base game) for $12.19 AUD from Steam (unless Steam discounts $2.99 AUD or greater for already owning the base game)? Additionally (and maybe it is only me who is affected), Humble Bundle's checkout process is currently experiencing issues (i.e., HTTP 500, internal server error).

        • Looks like you're right, I thought the pack was just DLC.

          In the past I've purchased Steam bundles where it gave you a discount if you already had some of the games/items in your library, doesn't seem to be the case with this bundle.

    Buying XCOM 2 and the DLC is only the beginning. The mod support for it is utterly insane. There are complete overhauls of classes and aliens (including new options for both), AI improvements to reduce cheese in both directions, tons of QoL improvements and even massive changes to the strategic layer of gameplay. It's pretty normal to be running 50+ mods simultaneously to tweak the game to your liking.

    • +3

      I have 500+ hours in Xcom 2 over the past 8 years or so, it's just scratches an itch that no other turn based strategy game has. I am doing a playthrough currently with a mod pack of 250 mods, it's insane how different the game can be.

  • +3

    $3 for prey alone is a steal (if you don't use gamepass)

  • +2

    Not sure why nobody is saying anything about Dishonored 2. It's stunning, and the Thief remake that fans of The Dark Project deserve.

    This is a perfect deal because it has to be played on PC, as all consoles have remained 30fps locked.

  • +2

    XCOM 3 when?

    • +2

      I heard they’re co-releasing it with Half Life 3

  • +5

    Just be aware that Prey and Xcom 2 have been given out for free by Epic Games Store at some point in the past so be sure to check your library.

    I love XCOM 2 - strongly recommend you make sure to get the DLC as well, it improves a lot on the base game.

  • +3

    I had issues purchasing, none of the payment options were working,

    • +1

      Yeah, Humble Bundle's payment backend is broken. Oddly, I could purchase a book bundle, but nothing from the store.

      • … and they've removed 'Dishonored 2' from the store without remediating the issue. Absolute amateur hour.
