Never-ending grapples
That debut trailerfor the newXCOM 2expansionhad a hell of a lot going on. In the weeks since the full reveal forWar of the Chosen, Firaxis has been putting out more focused videos including one on theAssassin, one on theReaper, and now, today, one on the Skirmisher. These are my dudes right here.
They’re mobile, grapple-centric characters capable of pulling themselves across the map with ease and yanking foes toward them for a clean shot. Skirmishers can also get to a point where, among other abilities, they’re able to take an action after each enemy takes theirs. All that, and they look cool.

War of the Chosenisn’t due out until August 29, so there’s plenty left to see, too.
