Feral Interactive today announced that a Mac version of the award-winning strategy game XCOM: Enemy Unknown is now available on Steam, along with the Slingshot and Elite Soldier DLC packs. Developed by Firaxis Games and published by 2K for PC and consoles, XCOM: Enemy Unknown is a re-imagining of the groundbreaking classic X-COM: UFO Defense (1994).

XCOM: Enemy Unknown is an electrifying combination of turn-based tactics, global strategy and sophisticated role-playing that puts players in charge of XCOM, the Extraterrestrial Combat Unit, a top-secret military organization responsible for defending Earth from an alien invasion. Players command a small squad of elite soldiers in tense turn-based battles where every decision could be the difference between game-changing gains or devastating losses for humanity.

The Mac version of XCOM: Enemy Unknown on Steam has all the features present in the Windows version of the game, including achievements and leaderboards, and allows Mac and Windows users to play against each other in online multiplayer games.

“XCOM: Enemy Unknown is a wonderfully accomplished game,” said David Stephen, Managing Director of Feral Interactive. “We are delighted to be releasing it on Steam, where players can enjoy all its multiplayer features.”

XCOM: Enemy Unknown for the Mac retails for $39.99 on Steam in the US with other prices set based on territory. The Slingshot and Elite Soldier DLC packs retail for $6.99 and $4.99 respectively.
