Hold onto your hats, folks, because I stumbled upon something that might just blow your mind. You know XCOM, right? That killer strategy game series that’s been around since ’94? (Yeah, that’s a long time ago, don’t remind me.) Anyway, here’s the scoop — every mainline XCOM game is just ten bucks on Steam right now. Seriously. All the old-school gems from the ‘90s mixed with the fancy rebooted ones since 2012. A little birdie told me over 15,000 bundles already flew off the virtual shelves, so if you’re an XCOM fan, swoop in before it vanishes! (Normally you’d be paying $269 — not that I’ve done the math, but apparently so.)
Oh, May 2025 — mark it down, because that’s when this bundle’s happening. Couldn’t make it more official if I tried. Check it out, they got this snazzy picture of it, and for some odd reason, it made me think of kaleidoscopes. Don’t ask why.
Now, let’s get messy with what you’re getting here: XCOM: Chimera Squad, XCOM 2, The Bureau: XCOM Declassified, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, X-COM: Enforcer (I remember that one like it was yesterday), X-COM: Interceptor, X-COM: Apocalypse, X-COM: Terror From the Deep, and the classic X-COM: UFO Defense. Steam codes, baby! Once yours, it’s like part of your digital DNA. Play on your laptop, desktop, or that funky-looking Steam Deck. And hey, if you’re feeling generous, you could gift one to a pal!
Plus, don’t quote me on this, but I think you get all the major XCOM 2 DLC, like XCOM 2: War of the Chosen. Sounds like a cozy gaming night, right?
Oh, and I almost forgot (I do that sometimes), but by nabbing this bundle, you’re also backing the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research. That guy’s a legend, and his foundation’s been chasing that Parkinson’s cure since 2000. It’s wild that there’s still no cure when six million people are out there dealing with it. But hey, every bundle bought helps in the big fight.
Flipping the page for more gaming bundles, if you’ve still got room on your hard drive. And Noah Hunter? Yeah, he’s meandering around the gaming review scene, co-founder of Final Weapon, doing the good work in Japanese gaming. No need to send flowers, but a heads-up is always appreciated.
So, yeah, XCOM for ten bucks, Michael J. Fox, and a ton of games. What a time to be alive.
