Out now, Every Day We Fight is a time-looping, wartime twist on XCOM strategy

The narrative setup to XCOM 2 - humanity has lost, the aliens have won, and our entire species now faces destruction - is a masterstroke by Firaxis. Being on the back foot is terrifying, and that peril drives every minute of the game's tense atmosphere. So it is with Every Day We Fight. In this new strategy game, developed by Signal Space Lab and published by Manor Lords studio Hooded Horse, the extraterrestrial threat interrupts an ongoing global conflict, trapping your small squad of civvies in a neverending time loop and forcing them into a daunting role as humankind's last hope.

[h3]Welcome to the Resistance[/h3][hr][/hr]In this turn-based tactical roguelite, a small group of civilians fights through a looping war against a hostile alien force. Each mission blends real-time exploration with precision tactics. You’ll aim every shot by hand, use cover and terrain to your advantage, and adapt quickly or watch the loop reset when your squad goes down.

Explore a fully open city, uncover the source of the invasion, and push deeper into enemy territory with each run. The campaign includes a voiced prologue and early story acts, with more coming throughout Early Access.

[h3]Core Features[/h3]

Turn-based combat with real-time elements: Plan your moves, set up ambushes, and react during the enemy’s turn using unique reflex abilities.
Ballistics-based aiming: Every shot is manually aimed. Position, cover, and line-of-sight all matter.
Time loop progression: Retain weapons, skills, and knowledge across runs. Every death sharpens your strategy.
Fully open city map: Explore streets, interiors, and hidden zones at your own pace.
Diverse mission types: Defuse bombs, rescue civilians, shut down alien harvesters, and more.
Dozens of weapons and mods: Mix and match gear to suit your tactics. Scavenge new tools with every loop.
Tactical enemy variety: Fight across a range of enemy archetypes, each with distinct patterns and pressure systems.
Narrative campaign in progress: Play through a voiced prologue and the first story acts, with new chapters arriving during Early Access.
