In USC: Counterforce players are tasked with leading a group of Space Commandos in turn-based squad tactics combat inspired by the likes of UFO/XCOM, Space Hulk, and Aliens. The players’ commandos have been sent to a planetary body to investigate and take down a powerful alien threat. Players must discover the truth behind the demise of the planet’s colony and plan an efficient strategy to protect humanity from this threat. They will have the opportunity to fend off aliens with their friends thanks to a local co-op mode (Hot-seat or using Remote Play together).

The authors of USC: Counterforce put so much on their shoulders that they visibly ran out of steam in the final sprint, which is why the game looks the way it does. It's a waste of time pretending to be an Aliens - Xcom when everything, including difficulty settings, campaign handling, base building and unit management, feels rushed and unfinished.
