Phoenix Point’s Terror from the Void mod is so good Snapshot Games just released a massive patch to make the original game more like the fanmade overhaul

Phoenix Point, originally designed as a successor to the X-COM series, faced challenges at launch, including bugs and repetitive gameplay. The introduction of the "Terror from the Void" mega-mod significantly improved the game, leading to the Firebird update, which coincided with the game's fifth anniversary. This update includes a 20% reduction in research times, halved construction times for project buildings, simplified ammunition production, and revamped base defense missions. It also alters the Pandorans' evolution system to create a more balanced gameplay experience. Additional changes include more predictable soldier rescue missions, increased ambush missions, and the introduction of loot crates. The update is compatible with the Terror from the Void mod, and players are encouraged to update their mods. To celebrate the update, Phoenix Point is being offered at a 60% discount, reducing the price from £19.50 to £7.79, with the offer ending on December 18.
