The Headquarters in EU is composed of a number of facilities and can be expanded (24 slots) by your [Engineering (EU2012)|engineers]] as the game progresses. The position of the facilities in relation to one another will provide bonuses to their output. Each slot must be excavated (§10; 5 days) prior to building a facility. Facilities may also be removed (§5).

- Contains the Geoscape where you can advance game time forward, choose missions to respond, view global Satellite coverage, and watch aircraft on their way to a mission.
- Houses the base's Skyranger troop transport and its Interceptors. Allows to equip, repairs and deploy Interceptors throughout Earth's continents.
- View your list of soldiers and their individual characteristics, edit their attributes, and equip them for missions. You can also hire new Rookies, access the Officer Training School & Psi Lab, and visit the Memorial to fallen troopers.
- Capacity: 99 soldiers.
- Manage Research projects to obtain advanced technology using your scientists. Receives bonuses from building Laboratories.
- Build Aircraft, Weapons, Armor and other equipment. Receives bonuses from Workshops and Foundries.
- Build additional facilities, excavate lower levels and build and Access Lifts.
- Provides a global view of the funding countries and their panic level, satellite coverage with additional interdiction aircraft, financials including a menu with links to pending requests and the Gray Market, where it's possible to raise credits by selling advanced technology to Earth's nations. Finally it contains a list of strategic Objectives to help XCOM progress through the alien invasion.
- Recover soldiers injured in battle.
