After having been released to rave reviews in February this year, XCOM 2 is ready to be bestowed with its first DLC pack that’s arriving next week. Since this announcement is on such a short notice, you may already have guessed that the upcoming pack will not add any story content to the game.
Instead, this cheap XCOM 2 DLC called Anarchy’s Children will bring with it more than hundred fresh ‘exotic’ hairstyles, face paints, armor, decals and masks. It will be sold in exchange of 5 USD (approx Rs 335) via Steam. However, if you’ve already purchased the game’s Reinforcement Pack, the new DLC will be made available to you for free.
Firaxis Games has revealed through a blog post that the developers are also busy preparing a patch that will introduce several performance optimizations and gameplay bug fixes. We’re guessing, it’s after this release that the makers will begin working on the story DLC.
XCOM 2 is a sequel to the reboot named XCOM: Enemy Unknown which was launched back in October 2012. Both the entries have received tremendous praise from fans as well as critics frm all over the world. It’s a strategy game with its focus set on turn-based tactics.

This sequel takes place about 20 years following the events that transpired in the previous title. The military organization named XCOM has lost an intense battle with aliens who have now started controlling the world. A resistance force has risen to take control of the planet back from them.
The Anarchy’s Children DLC for XCOM 2 is slated to be released on March 17 through Steam at the above mentioned price.
