This means “XCOM 2” players on Mac, Linux, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch will be able to play multiplayer and Challenge Mode. One of the goals is to climb up a leaderboard by beating other players in their efforts to accomplish said challenges.įiraxis noted that the change would not affect other platforms. The Challenge Mode, on the other hand, featured daily challenges that can be completed as a solo player. But most players deemed it not a major component of the game, while others have previously noted that the multiplayer lacks key functionalities available in the single-player campaign.

“XCOM 2” launched in 2016 with a multiplayer feature that lets players go on battles against other squads that can be composed of both aliens and XCOM forces.
#Xcom 2 multiplayer update
The “XCOM 2” Windows PC version will receive an update on Monday, March 28, that will ultimately remove these game modes. “We will be retiring services for Multiplayer and Challenge Mode for the Steam version of the game,” the developer announced earlier this week. While the announcement did not specifically mention it, the shift is notably happening months ahead of the anticipated release of “Marvel’s Midnight Suns.” Firaxis announced it is ending the support for the “XCOM 2” multiplayer and Challenge Mode in the coming weeks.
