You take charge of X-COM, a global alliance created by governments to counter the growing alien danger.Features:

Lead intense close-quarters combat
Bringing down UFOs is only step one; you must then guide a team of heavily armed troops across diverse landscapes to investigate crash sites. Engage the invaders using automatic rifles, rocket launchers, and even tanks, all while trying to secure their valuable technology, weaponry, or biological specimens.
Research and create alien tech
Victorious ground assaults enable X-COM scientists to study extraterrestrial artifacts. Every discovery brings you nearer to comprehending the technology and culture of these alien species. Once enough data is gathered on their superior ships and armaments, you can produce equally powerful gear.
Formulate a plan to save humanity
Every critical decision rests on your shoulders as you battle the formidable alien armada. You must also monitor global political climates; nations might secretly sign pacts with the invaders, which could lead to cuts in your X-COM budget.
