Couple of hours into Gears Tactics and it's pretty damn good, hits the XCOM itch perfectly while still changing enough stuff to be it's own thing. I like their overwatch implementation much better than XCOM, setting up kill boxes and watching the ensuing carnage is so satisfying. The execution system is also fantastic, chaining a few together resulting in half your team with double action points almost feels like cheating
I'm not sure if I would have given it a shot if I wasn't already subscribed to Game Pass, but now it's just another reason why it's such a good deal
