Phoenix Point: XCOM Creator’s Game Is Here Shortly

Phoenix Point will launch in several editions and release windows, even if that sounds weird.

Phoenix Point is a strategy game from the creator of the original XCOM series. It will have turn-based tactics and world-based strategy in „a fight against a terrifying, alien menace,” which will mutate and evolve in response to your tactics, „creating a huge variety of challenges and surprises for you on the battlefield.”

Before we talk about the release date (or dates…?), let’s see the editions the game will be getting. The base edition for forty dollars will have the game, and a digital game manual. The sixty-dollar Deluxe version will also include a desktop wallpaper, a digital artbook, The Compendium [probably a recap of the lore – the ed.], and two in-game items, namely the Living Gun set, and the Chitin armour set. The Ultra edition will cost 80 dollars, and it will be the Deluxe Edition with the Season Pass.

There will be five DLCs. Buying them separately would cost you 40 bucks, but the Season Pass costs thirty. They are Blood and Titanium ($4.99 separately), Legacy of the Ancients ($9.99), Festering Skies ($9.99), and the fourth ($4.99) and fifth ($9.99) DLC have no name yet. If you pre-order the game, you’ll get the digital soundtrack, plus the digital version of Mokushi’s album called AM3.

Phoenix Point will launch on PC first, as an Epic Games Store exclusive. It will be available from December 3, 10 AM PT, 1 PM ET, and 7 PM CET. The Xbox One port will follow in Q1 2020, and the PlayStation 4 version will arrive later next year. The game has a weird strategy to have a Season Pass that costs almost as much as the game itself. The information was taken from Snapshot Games‘ announcement post.
