XCOM 2 Launches on PS4 and Xbox One This September

I like to be timely and keep you up-to-date on all of the happening video game news, so let’s talk about a story that broke nearly three weeks ago.  The previously PC exclusive and follow up to the fantastic XCOM: Enemy Unknown (and Enemy Within), XCOM 2 is finally set to release on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.  After previously stating that it would never release on consoles, Firaxis announced that XCOM 2 would be making its way to current generation hardware in North America on September 6, 2016 and internationally on September 9, 2016.

XCOM 2 offers up “new procedural maps and gameplay, ensuring an unpredictable setting and challenge every mission.”  In a post on PlayStation Blog, Garth DeAngelis (Lead Producer on XCOM 2) stated that the fun, challenge, and unpredictability of the PC version will remain fully intact.  It is said to be a “behemoth” of a game and you’ll be able to send your friends to almost certain death in XCOM 2 in just a few short months.
