This new chapter in the XCOM reboot is among the finest games available for Mac. From developer Firaxis Games, this tactical turn-based strategy gem is as fun as it is deep. The tense combat and permanent team member deaths make for some memorable moments that keep you coming back for more.

In XCOM 2, humanity is under the rule of an alien race, which have made earth their home. The player must do battle with our new overloads. Although this may sound like a generic game story, XCOM 2 manages to pack more emotion into one level than most games manage in their entirety. The aliens are battled with using squads of between four to six humans. It is essential to balance your upgrades and classes in order to take on these foes effectively.

The AI works well and the enemies put up a good fight.

Ever choice you make no matter how big or small will affect the outcome of your next battle, as from managing your weapon upgrade to the global scale of your next attack, the life of your squad is at stake. Although you may need a higher-end Mac to run this one, you won’t be disappointed, as the visuals look fantastic.
