Speaking of, there is also a War of the Chosen variant for this mod. Grimy has also made a PCS Loot Mod that works alongside this and makes the Skulljack useful throughout the game as well as an Alien Rulers Loot Mod, though that requires the Alien Rulers DLC (which everything should have by now if you’ve purchased War of the Chosen). And the sheer number of things getting added is astounding: With new addons that give weapon holders special perks and abilities as well as hundreds of new stat boosting addons, this is perfect for keeping the sense of risk and reward going in the late game when intel and supplies start to feel redundant. This mod also has a War of the Chosen variant available. I can’t recommend this enough as a quality of life mod. Not only does it look cooler, it also saves at least a minute. Evac All adds a handy little button that makes every unit in the evac zone rope out at the same time. Getting all of your soldiers to the evac point and having to go through the long roping out animation with each and every one of them is tedious to the point of torture.

These are the best XCOM 2 and War of the Chosen mods: Some mods on our list have versions available for both, and we’ve marked them where relevant. The difference between vanilla XCOM 2 and War of the Chosen is a little bit like night and day, so the modding objectives for both versions of the game can be quite different. A mod for one won’t necessarily work for the other without some tinkering. Showing their commitment to the fans, Firaxis actually teamed up with Pavonis Interactive (the creators of the original Long War mod for Enemy Unknown) to make sure that the modding tools were as streamlined as they could be before releasing them into the wild.īelow is a selection of some of our favourite mods from the venerable turn-based strategy game, although it’s worth pointing out this is a slightly fragmented list due to the slightly weird nature of the XCOM 2 DLC library.

Firaxis is a big supporter of XCOM 2 mods, and while the studio has now left the community to their own devices, it has also made it so easy for modders to change the whole game.
