Control Point missions enter XCOM 2's infiltration campaigns

Holding one position against ADVENT is hard enough. Mission: Control Point asks XCOM 2 squads to defend two at once, across eight maps where splitting your forces can become a problem very quickly. Its latest update brings that mission type into Covert Infiltration campaigns, extending the tactical overhaul with another kind of defensive battle.

The idea recalls the control-point fights of XCOM: Enemy Within, but this version comes with a warning: creator arch hasn't playtested the balance. War of the Chosen, the Tactical Legacy Pack and Community Highlander are required. It's an intriguing new pressure test for experienced commanders, not a guaranteed fit for a finely tuned campaign.
