XCOM2 - I'd heard of it but was never really interested. Then it was either on sale or in a humble bundle (with all its dlc) very cheap (under £10). I absolutely loved it from start to finish and it's made me obsessed with turn-based combat.
Hey, I was big on X-Com 1 and 2 as well and really think Gears Tactics nailed the combat portion, no base upgrading though :( A friend is pretty into Jagged Alliance 3 too but I haven't played any of them.
Gears Tactics is on Game Pass as well.
Thank you for the recommendations. I'll definitely give Gears Tactics a go. If you haven't, give Marvel's Midnight Suns a chance. People are in mixed minds about Firaxis' latest game but I found the combat and card play brilliant. The battles are really addictive. It's 60% off right now on Steam.
I loved Marvel Suns and you just reminded me that I haven't finished it yet! Got thrown on the back burner where my Steam games go to die lol, cheers!
