XCOM Headquarters (EU2012)

On Enemy Unknown 2012 XCOM Headquarters is the single base available for the player to fight the alien menace. Nicknamed the 'Ant Hill' by the design team, the base is presented with a cross-section that allows the player to zoom in the different base facilities.

• Hangar
• Mission Control
• Situation Room - Funding Council
• Armory (Equip Soldiers)
