XCOM successor Phoenix Point’s next DLC will add a Mad Max-like faction

Phoenix Point is the XCOM successor from Snapshot Games and Julian Gollop, one of the creators of the X-Com franchise, and the developer has revealed the game’s fifth major DLC – the Mad Max-like Kaos Engines, along with the expansion’s release date for March.

There are a lot of great games that try to best XCOM 2, but as fans wait patiently for XCOM 3 they probably couldn’t do better than Phoenix Point – a similar turn-based strategy and equally as engaging. Phoenix Point released in December 2019 and has had multiple DLC expansions since – with the most recent being Corrupted Horizons in September 2021.

Now developed Snapshot has finally lifted the lid on DLC 5 – Kaos Engines, which will release on all platforms – yes, even Stadia – on March 1. It’ll cost around $4.99 USD but will be free to Season Pass and Expansion Pass holders, as well as people who backed the game on Fig – and will add a whole new faction to the game, and more.
