Firaxis and 2K Games announced at the PC Gamer Show that XCOM 2 will be getting a new expansion this fall, and it is called War of the Chosen.
The expansion adds three new factions that have their own heroes that help XCOM in their fight, but the big addition is The Chosen, which are described as:
The Chosen are the most cunning enemies XCOM has ever faced, each with unique strengths and weaknesses that will be introduced with each new campaign. The Chosen are on the hunt for the Commander and will kidnap, interrogate, and kill XCOM’s soldiers to complete their objective. The Chosen can also invade the strategy layer and ravage XCOM’s global operations. Find and raid the Chosen’s strongholds to defeat the enemy for good.
Also being added to the game through the expansion are new alien and Advent threats, new environments, new missions objectives, and much more!
