From some novel new ideas, such as a mobile base rather than a stationary one, to new enemies and allies, XCOM 2 is just a fantastic blend of tactics and resetting every time a friend dies. Superhot is so good that you just want to tell everyone that Superhot is the most innovative shooter I've played in years.Ģ016 TechRaptor Awards Won: Indie Game of the Yearĭeveloper: Firaxis Games | Release Date: February 5th, 2016 | Game PageĪfter already getting a fantastic revival, XCOM 2 took all the things you loved about XCOM: Enemy Unknown and made them better.
