For example, the Icarus Suit features powerful boosters that allow its wearer to fly around the map.
In addition to new weapons and enemies, Alien Hunters includes three new suits of armor. And finally, the Frost Bomb is a grenade that temporarily freezes enemies. The ShadowKeeper is a pistol that is guaranteed to hit and can place its user in concealment when the enemy is killed. The Hunter’s Axe is a powerful new blade weapon. The Bolt Caster is a high damage single-shot weapon. Thankfully, this DLC also introduces four new weapons players will be able to research and build. These Rulers will show up at random during your campaign, and if you don’t take them down fast enough, they could escape. These Rulers are more formidable versions of pre-existing XCOM 2 enemies, such as the Viper King pictured above, and they all have their own unique behavior and tactics. XCOM 2’s Alien Hunters DLC looks to give you more reasons to jump back into the fight for humanity later this month.Īlien Hunters will include a new narrative-driven mission that has players facing off against new aliens called Rulers.
