Battle Breakers vs XCOM: Enemy Unknown
Battle Breakers
Battle Breakers is a new free-to-play turn-based RPG from Epic Games. Here, you’ll fight against monsters from the sky who trapped the planet’s heroes. Your role is to gather a team to take the planet back from them. Use a variety of heroes with different abilities and use elemental affinities to your advantage.Granted that it isn’t a battle royale, but much like the Fortnite, it innovates and delivers new yet refined gameplay mechanics. Available on Android, iOS, and on PC through the Epic Games Store, this turn-based strategy game is a breath of fresh air to the rather crowded hero-collecting subgenre. Though its gameplay loop appears way too different and even uncharacteristic, it’s extremely fun, simple to pick up, and in a way, works seamlessly. All these, paired up with high production value and hilarious dialogue, deliver quite an experience.
Overall, Battle Breakers is a must-try game especially if you’re looking for a new hero-collector. Though it’s still a little early to say that it beats its peers off the park, its fresh take on dungeon-crawling and its robust roster of heroes to collect makes it something you need to get your hands on.

The game will also see you as a diplomat of sorts as you'll need to interact and negotiate with various governments during your missions.XCOM: Enemy Unknown is one of the best turn-based strategy game there is (and yes, this means until now). However, the game can be quite difficult especially for newcomers to get into, and to truly appreciate the details and the flawless gameplay mechanics, you might need to put in quite a bit of time into the game. But if you do all of that, you'll be richly rewarded with one of the best gaming experience you'll ever get.
