ABOUT XCOM 2: WAR OF THE CHOSEN
The fight against ADVENT continues when additional resistance factions form in order to eliminate the alien threat on Earth. In response, a new enemy, known as the “Chosen,” emerges with one goal: recapture the Commander. This expansion to the 2016 award-winning strategy game of the year includes new Hero classes to counter the “Chosen”, new enemies, missions, environments and increased depth in strategic gameplay. Requires XCOM 2 to play.
ABOUT XCOM 2

Twenty years have passed since humanity lost the war against the alien invaders and a new world order now exists on Earth. After years of lurking in the shadows, XCOM forces must rise and eliminate the alien occupation. Join the resistance. Available now on PC, Mac, Linux, PS4 and Xbox One.

What do you think of the Templar? Will this elite psionic unit be in your squad in XCOM 2: War of the Chosen?
It will be tell he/she dies in true XCOM fashion.
Considering how much I love Psi Operative squads, why wouldn't I want to have a Psylocke in it? :D
hmm, reminds me of my favorite race from Stacraft... The Protoss XCOM style :) a must have choice for my squads!
And 2 Templars can morph into an Archon? :D
Yeah I was gonna use the Reaper but now that I see how powerful the Templars are I'm definitely going to use them.

Looks like we're gonna need to make room for Pylons on the Avenger...
Zetsumi Ravencroft dont forget the overlords or mouls
Or a mod that turns 'power' rooms into Pylons that can be upgraded.

"Commander, um, the ships telling me... We require something called vespine gas?"
Zetsumi Ravencroft And the Templar Archives for that psi storm research.
Got a Templar who rolled bladestorm, reaper, and shadowstep. Most beautifully overpowered thing I have ever witnessed. He single-handedly won my legend ironman campaign.
MY LIFE FOR AIUR
EN TARO COMMANDER
Now when war of the chosen releases I will rename my Templar Artanis.
Also, the Reapers are like the Terran because they are the most human, the Skirmishers are like the Zerg because they are genetically modified soldiers, and the Templars are like the Protoss because they wield energy swords, and use psionic power. It all connects.
Mine would be Fenix!

Commander: Can we MERGE them?
Bradford: What.
Tygan: Hmm, an interesting concept, Commander. I shall look into it.
*Project Codename: Archon (XCOM Ver.) unlocked.*

Can we combine two Templars together to make an Archon?
would have been a genius nod to blizzard, then 3 months later blizzard would meet them........in court.
- templars
- psiblades
Will they require pylons to be deployed?
I looking hard to a probe...
You require more Vespine gas.
Cthulu TheSpy will they be able to become archons?
1+1=1
Nice to know that they'll still have pistols to use if their power's drained. I really like the heavy focus on melee/CLOSE RANGE too, since the Ranger is my favorite class.
They're officially called Autopistols here, and they work identically to the Sharpshooter's pistols.
CLOSE RANGE!?
I find the Skirmishers to be more like a ranger as they can kill easily while Templars need focus before killing the masses
0:10 Can use psionic attacks without an amp
0:16 Can *create* high cover elements to block fire on a whim
0:19 Can block incoming fire with a psionic shield
0:23 Has effective melee attacks with psionic blades
0:40 Can cast chain lightning
0:50 Can pull a Diablo 2 Assassin and make a Perfect Shadow clone companion
1:02 Blue meets red, hello *PURPLE RAIIIIIN*
1:17 Has Hold Person too... how many Clerics in D&D have made you salty? Then you know how scary this s*** is
A week or so ago:
"the chosen scare me..... we're all pretty screwed right now..."
Today:
"Y'ALL BETTER START RUNNING, YOU PURPLE CHUCKLEF***S!!!"

A, good old days in Brood War
MY LIFE FOR AIUR...I mean MY LIFE FOR XCOM
I was always the most hyped for the Psi based faction.
And they completely delivered. I WANT THEM NOW!
A mysterious order of Telepaths/Telekinetics that are good at close quarters and use energy swords?
They're the Fucking Jedi!
DEUS VULT, COMMANDER
DEUS VULT !!!!
The Happy Madman WE WILL RECLAIM THE HOLY PLANET !
GROS VULT !
someone should make a voice pack where this DEUS VULT is the only line
COMMANDER, DON'T JUST VULT, DEUS VULT!
All hail Great Commandy One! Deus Vult!
Congratulations. All three factions are distinct and really interesting. Well done.
these Templar seemly highly suspicious.... you're telling me they had these powers all this time... they are not from advent? so what are they? how they hell did they get these powers?
probably the ancient conspirasionist and the former exalt soldier
Well they are rouge, So maybe like the skirmishers they have some connection to Advent?
TheLPRnetwork Humanity has had psychic energy since Xcom 1. Although I don't think they made it that far in the cannon, humans are supposed to be really strong psychically.
TheLPRnetwork I would guess they are probably some cult that figured out manifesting psionics and believed it was the work of the gods, hence the name "templars"
HowJewDoin' you know with that being said, and considering parts of XCOM 1 got retconned, I like to believe now that XCOM tried multiple times to get psyionic soldiers. But instead some defected from the program and went into hiding.
Psyker Templars!?
By the Emperor, when did I enter Bizarro World!?
TheUnholyHandGrenade This is all the Librarains we sent away
TheUnholyHandGrenade it's Tzeenech "just as planned" shenanigans again..
....DAMMIT, I was joking when I thought: "So, they're Protoss Units"
but after seeing this video, it makes even more sense....
Yeah baby! Others saying ''is halo style''. And now: Suprise Motherfu$%¨&
If you're a fan of ST TNG, the new characters are voiced by alumni of the show:
Johnathan Frakes (Riker) as Volk, leader of the Reapers.
Michael Dorn (Worf) as Pratal Mox, a veteran Skirmisher.
Marina Sirtis (Deanna Troi) as Elena "Outrider" Dragunova, a veteran Reaper.
Denise Crosby (Tasha Yar) as Betos, leader of the Skirmishers.
John de Lancie (Q) as Geist, leader of the Templars.
Wow, I only recognized riker. Cool
Alrighty then, personal opinion is Skirmishers>Templars>Reapers.
Curious regarding how others think.
Templars>Reapers>Skirmishers
Reapers>Templars>Skirmishers
Mostly agree, though I need to see how stealth missions have changed.
Honestly, all three of them look pretty cool, and apparently we'll be able to get one of each without too much difficulty.
Templars>Skirmishers>Reapers
1- Templars: I can see similarities between them and the WoW Warlocks (no "mana regeneration" AKA: no cooldowns on PSI moves, spend "magic" wisely), great idea on paper, (IMO) great idea in practice
2- Skirmishers: focused around LOUD missions, where stealth isn't present at the start, I suppose they will be *almost* a must pick on "The Lost" late-game missions
3- STALKERS I mean... Reapers: focused around stealth with sprinkles of action (the detonator, for example), but I think they won't shine as often as the Skirmishers (even if it's just by a little bit, and I hope it will be that way)
I'm not much of a fan on picking stealthy commando habilities... so I don't think I'll use them a lot...
My Life for Aiur!

The Templar better shout "UNLIMITED POWER!" when using the Force Lightning.
the knights of humanity! time to kick some serious alien butt with these awesome psi abilities.
RANGERS AND PSIONIC SOLDIERS IN ONE? HELL YES
I like that they need focus to do certain things. These guys look really awesome. I'd have to say these and the Skirmishers are the ones I'm looking most forward to. The Reapers will be useful and seem cool, but these other 2 classes look so much more awesome!
Phill they are all awesome for different purposes. Skirmishers are best against single targets I bet, Templars great against multiples, Reapers are good for recon and small squads covert missions.
think you got that reversed, given all the actions Skirms get.
*WE NEED TO CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL PYLONS*
Jebus .H Christoff. what reference is that
Nicholas Gonzalez Starcraft protoss faction
The side blades looks so much like the halo energy sword!
MY LIFE FOR XCOM... I AM THE BLADES OF EARTH...
EN TARO COMMANDER
Cows_n_Muffins You beat me to it
MY LIFE FOR XCOM
You think as I do.
2 X Templar = 1 Archon
I want to hear more about their origins. Like how do these guys have such advanced tech and psionic powers if they have no ties with Advent? probably saving that lore for the in game storyline
The XCOM 2 website already has their backstory up.
"The Templars - led by Geist, one of the original Psionic soldiers - stayed away from ADVENT and their city centers after surviving the fall of the XCOM Project. In their isolation, they developed an almost religious zeal for collecting Psionic energy. Experimenting upon themselves, they even created weaponry that taps into their latent skills. As ADVENT and the Chosen Warlock begin siphoning Psionic energy across the planet, the Templars are now preparing to strike back."
So they're actually former XCOM.
Remember when the DBZ battle during the final mission was the most anime thing in XCOM 2?
I already feel that choosing between these 3 fractions would give us options like:
1. Make the Chosen under your command, except better than ever (skirmisher
2. Build your own Chosen (templar
and 3. build chosen armor (reapers cause they reap off alien technology licences
These new troops/enemies are awesome.
And the Templar looks badass.
Iiiii'm probably gonna nick name one of my Templar's, "Dark Templar..." :3
holy crap the choice of picking one is gonna be really hard now.
Hopefully...
KotzwurstPro the devs themselves have stated that you will get a hero from each faction easily through early covert actions. So you will have one easily, but a second will be hard to get. And in case you're wondering they said this you can see them say it in their livestream of the story mission, which is on this channel.
360MacGamer Ok thank you!
You can get all of them, but I heard they have a shared resource they use to upgrade abilities, which if that is right would mean you would have to choose which ones you want to get stronger over a given play through.
Devin Moore also that very same resource can be used on base soldiers for them to learn more abilities as well, such as a ranger having both blade master and phantom, or there secret abilities similar to the advanced warfare center.
You had me at psionic energy swords in XCOM. Take my money!
These classes reminds me of the Warlocks,Titans, and Hunters of Destiny
Templars sound kinda OP with a good squad.
You know that the voice of the Templars Lider is the same person as Alarak (starcraft 2 protos)... I do not think it was a coincidence
"Yes yes yes yes, I shall win your battle shortly"
Finally some info on Templars :D
Mage-kun has arrived.
I can already tell that this one will be my favorite of the new classes.
You know, with all these elite and powerful groups around the world, its odd that Xcom would only now hear of them.
Not that I'm complaining, new units are always welcome.
Blizzard called. They want their Protoss back.
this^
1d4chan.org/wiki/Blizzard
Destiny called, they want their Warlock back!
halo called back they want their energy sword back
You can't rip off Blizzard when they ripped off Gamesworkshop.
they are Templar's and the aliens have an assassin
So, this is what Discord is doing, among other things, on his free time.
I know this comes kinda late, but would you be interested in a little book project called Stardust? ^^
@@LtCWest So, what is it all about?
@@johnivanoplimo5172 Basically, Discord sends Twilight to the XCOM-verse and she almost gets "interrogated".
Its a very well written story.
www.fimfiction.net/story/100455/stardust
I think they might be the psions from the first XCOM game who've honed their abilities to extraordinary degrees. They've developed into a secret order/resistance and sought others with the capacity to learn the same abilities. What do you think?
Build more pyl- I mean focus!
(Deep breath) my life for Aiur-Emperor-Commander.....
COMMANDER, WE MUST BUILD ADDITIONAL PYLONS!
The Templars do sound useful but I think I'd rather have Brotherhood
Bare hand instead of amplifier.... Much cooler I think.
Ok just wait for Artanis, Zeratul and Alarak Mod Voice pack
Templar is like "In the name of GreySkull! I have the POWER!!!"
Seems having a Templar will help in the Skirmishers/Reaper mission. Wonder is Mr we will get an assassins mission with Abstergo name dropped as well.
On the Xcom 2 website it says that the templars are led by "Geist", one of the original psionic soldiers
Commander: Holy cow, Geist! I didn't know hanging out with you was giving me psionic powers!
Geist: Full disclosure, Commander-it's not. Temporary psionic power is just a side effect of the elerium dissolving in your rectal cavity.
Commander: Aw, man!
Geist: Yeah. And once those elerium crystals weahh-wear off, you're gonna lose most of your buffs and... you're also gonna lose a significant amount of combat functionality for one turn, Commander. [checks turn count] Starting ruh-ight about now.
Commander: Ohh, man! Ohh, ohhh geez!! Ohh... [ends turn]
Side Note: Thank you wikiquote, Rick and Morty
etegikari you mind if I post this on XCOM tumbler? I'll credit you.
Confirmation that the Chosen can be driven away in combat?
Nice...
You can kill them on the battlefield, but the Ethereals will just resurrect them.
You have to kill them in their bases to take them out permanently.
Dingus Joe That's what I figured based on what the devs said about using the factions to hunt down a Chosen's base.
Dingus Joe I wonder how many people are going to hardmode it and let all 3 Chosen live until the very last battle.
Lord Moose I will do it but i will also use cheats! hahshaha
This is the kind of stuff I always wanted from psionics in xcom
Time to make PSI GREAT AGAIN!
WE REQUIRE MORE ELERIUM
Starcraft called, they want their Zealots back!
Seriously though, this looks sweet. Can't wait to play.
Templars if my favorite and I don't think anything will beat them
"You require more Vespene Gas!"
FINALLY! Before now the Templars just looked really cool, but all the information they gave us about them just... Didn't make them out to be very impressive. I'm VERY glad that the initial impression was wrong and they look amazing.
Woohoo! Few more weeks and wiping the floor with aliens, no?
Favorite class out of the three for me.
It feels like all of these DLCs add more power to the player without adding much to the enemy.
The
Chosen
R
Op
@@MrHarshverdhan Not really. 1 reaper is worth more than all 3 chosen put together. And they even drop op weapons for you to use in late game.
With mods on the other hand...
@@Xqvvzts try doing the final mission without killing them then
@@Xqvvzts chosen increased early game difficulty not late that's xcom thing difficulty goes down instead of up
@@MrHarshverdhan Wait, they're all in the final mission if you don't hunt them down? That sounds awesome.
I think that's my next playthrough.
En'Taro Commander!
We need some Dawn of War Psyker voice clips for these dudes, especially "WITNESS YOUR DOOOOOOM!!!"
Yeah nice stuff and all, but the real question is can i merge 2 templars into an Archon?
But who the hell is this "Geist"? I wonder if this is actually Annete Durand. Or Dr. Vahlen.
Nope, there's an article saying he's the "original" Psionic soldier from the first invasion
Anton Kirilenko Vahlen is working with Advent and created the Rulers. If nothing else then it'd be Durand.
Spearka , one of the original Psionic soldiers, actually. And Annete Durand is pretty much it, "one of the original Psionic soldiers".
If we didn't even finish researching the skeleton suit, no way did we get Psionics. Remember we didn't even last more than a few weeks in XCOM 2 timeline
bobsickle, yeah, but defeat of XCOM doesn't make Annete any less powerful. She could've escaped on her own.
*"We need focus!"*
0:49 Witness the power of my Stand: 「THUNDERSTRUCK」
Too bad the Templar's main enemy is the Warlock. It should be... the Assassin. 😉
will there be an ability to merge the ghost Templar and original Templar to make an archon?
You had me at psionic blades.
POWER! ABSOLUTE POWER!! That's looking incredible!
Has anyone noticed that all of the Resistance factions are counterparts to the chosen? We have a faction of stealthy, independent faction that uses rifles, a faction of psionically gifted warriors, and a faction of melee aliens. This matches The Hunter, The Warlock, and The Assassin Chosen. I hope it'll make those fights a little more interesting.
You remember that scene in The Kingsmen when free bird comes on.
So basically they are protoss.

Boy, he's lookin' sick!
0:56 _"I have the POWER!"_
finally another hit of xcom. feels so good
En Taro Comander! - I told this new units are a Starcraft Protoss!
Templar summons psi sword, misses the summon. Thats Xcom
this class is by far the most interesting of all three of them
It's funny that each faction had an "Our soldiers can do it, but these guys do it even better" comment. (Shadow concealment for the Reapers, grapple powers for the Skirmishers and psionics for the Templars.)
I can imagine the warlock and the elders pissing themselves when they see templars
New XCOM squad:
2 skirmishers, 2 reapers, 2 templars :D
Nice energy swords you got there.
they should make a animated TV show of this it would be fire
These abilities are insane
btw if you missed it, they can also use pistols
This was worth the wait. Because HOLY CRAP are these guys awesome :D
we talkin about FOCUS, not a game, not a game, but FOCUS!!
This is awesome. Can't wait to get my hands on this.
Looks like I found my go to faction
