Description

Phoenix Point is the acclaimed strategy game from the creator of X-COM, now with Steam Workshop support!

The Earth has been overrun. A mutating, alien menace threatens the last remnants of mankind. Only the Phoenix Project, a secret organization of the best minds and bravest soldiers left on earth, can repel the invasion and reverse the inevitable. The Phoenix Project looks to you for leadership. Research and develop new technologies, explore a ravaged globe, build your bases, manage resources, and dominate the battlefield.

Just remember: you're not alone out there. Factions, including the corporatist New Jericho, the indecisive Synedrion, and the fanatical Disciples of Anu, as well as a variety of offshoot subfactions, have their own values, goals, and view of the Pandorans. Work with these factions via Phoenix Point's diplomacy system, use subterfuge to steal what you need from them, or simply crush all around you with military might. No matter what you choose, victory won't be easy.



Phoenix Point Features:
  • Tons of Content: Over two years of updates, upgrades, fixes, and new content suggested by our community, including Steam Workshop support for subscribing and enabling mods, tweaking existing mods, and setting up your game the way you want to play. Try our example 'Custom Campaign' mod to set up new unique campaigns.

  • Mutating Alien Menace: Face down an ever-changing alien threat that adapts to your tactics and offers no respite even as your team becomes more powerful and technologically advanced.



  • Uncover the Secrets of the Pandoravirus: Engage with a complex narrative, complete with multiple endings that the player can only uncover via several playthroughs. Explore, research, and discover a secret history, as you learn about the origins of the mutants, the Pandoravirus, and Phoenix Point itself.

  • Manage Diplomatic Relations: The Phoenix Project is not the only organization trying to reclaim the Earth. The militaristic New Jericho, the mystical Disciples of Anu, and the technophiles of Synedrion all offer unique rewards for co-operation and threats for opposition. It is up to you to decide how, or even if, to deal with them.



  • Take Aim on the Battlefield: In addition to equipping and commanding units, Phoenix Point lets you take direct control of your soldier's shots in combat, with a unique free-aiming system. Target enemy weakspots, weapons, or valuables, or just go for center mass.

  • Next-Gen Tech with Classic Pedigree: Phoenix Point was designed by Julian Gollop, the creator of the X-COM series in the 1990s. Integrating the core ethos of X-COM while updating the visuals, technology, and systems to modern standards has made Phoenix Point best-in-class.

This is a difficult one. The game has much to like, but it is poorly playtested and balanced, even many years after release. Still I had fun. So take it as a weak recommendation assuming you can handle a poorly designed

The game could have used far less content and far more polish. It feels jank in the worst ways, playing it feels tedious and there's no real feedback from the combat or anything else that makes it feel impactful or

The base game (with all DLC) is fairly solid, but misses the mark in a few key ways that always had me quitting during the mid-late game. The Terror from the Void (TFTV) mod is the gold standard way to experience the

Phoenix Point is made by the people who made the original XCOM. Thank god they didn't make the remake (or the sequel). There's absolutely zero immersion in this game, no sense of urgency, no 'enemy' that you're trying

I wanted to like this game. I loved XCOM and as a result had high expectations for this game, and maybe that is my own fault. However, in the end I didn't particularly find Phoenix Point to be enjoyable. It has some

Mechanically better than Xcom2 but unfortunately greatly marred by unwise design decisions that keep it from rising to what it could, what it should be. The greatest thing holding it back is the lack of mod support.
