10 MORE Hardest Video Game Bosses That Required Incredible Skill
2. The Assassin - XCOM 2: War Of The Chosen
The Xcom series is on that is near and dear to my heart, but that doesn't imply that it's a loving relationship. At all. For you see to go steady with this franchise is to basically offer yourself up to a world of hurt, to accept that your team of well trained and well equipped soliders WILL die and that you are prepared for even the lowliest of enemy to absolutely ruin hours of your life.
So imagine what the bosses are like.
Added in as part of the War Of The Chosen expansion, The Assasin, The Hunter, And The Warlock are three super solider aliens tasked with taking you down with extreme force. To make matters worse they can appear in any mission meaning that an already challenging slog gets set to extreme at a moments notice.
And of the three the Assasin takes the most skill to take down, as thanks to her cloaking field and quick movement she will drop into your back line and cut through your team like wet bread. Annoyingly her skills also mean that high armour gets bypassed instantly and hunkering down is near useless when she can daze you with her 100% accuracy attacks.
The only way to make it through an encounter with her is to regroup, focus fire, and seperate her from the rest of the ADVENT pack she runs with. Good luck.
