I own XCOM 2 on PC. Is it worth getting it on the Series X so I can play while sitting on the couch?

While this doesn't directly answer your question, depending on your setup and assuming you have xcom 2 on steam you might be able to use steam remote play to just stream xcom 2 to your TV.

I think it's definitely worth it to get it on console, especially since it goes on sale a lot. Controller support is really good for XCOM 2.

The trade-off for playing on console is that you'll miss any character packs or mods (if you use them), and sometimes I think the ports can be a little less stable. But I also play it on PS5 sometimes just because the couch is comfy.

Thank you very very much. It's really expensive at the moment. I'll see how long until a sale.

Good plan. I know it drops down to less than $10 on steam regularly, and I got it on PS5+ for free* (with subscription) one month, so I bet it'll drop again.
