The Speaker

The story takes place in the universe of XCOM 2. Twenty years have passed since world leaders offered an unconditional surrender to alien forces that invaded earth and officially disbanded XCOM, the planet's last line of defense, was left decimated and scattered. Now the aliens rule earth, building shining cities that promise a brilliant future for humanity on the surface while concealing a sinister agenda below. People go missing without explanation or any serious investigation. There's rumours abound of a resistance group comprised of the old XCOM operatives, who are still fighting the aliens.
