XCOM 2 isn't just one of the best strategy games around, it's probably one of the most influential modern games in the genre. Since its launch in 2016 its inspiration can be felt in games like Mutant Road Zero, Xenonauts 2, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew, King Arthur: Knight's Tale, and developer Firaxis Games' own Marvel's Midnight Suns. Ubisoft even put their own spin on the format with the Mario and Rabbids games. Now, if you're looking for that next turn-based hit after Baldur's Gate 3, this classic can be yours for an almost unreasonably cheap $3.
