OpenXcom: UFO Defense and Terror from the Deep combined
Two X-COM classics in a single program: OpenXcom replays UFO Defense and Terror from the Deep with the rewritten original engine, a high-resolution-friendly interface, and community fixes.
VSDownload the fusion zip
The zip contains a PlayPadHub guide in two formats (HTML with clickable links, and plain text), shortcuts to the official page and direct downloads of the project.
No program, no script, and no game file in the zip. Free, no sign-up.
Où télécharger le projet
- OpenXcom downloads page — OpenXcom tab for the classic version, OpenXcom Extended tab for the recommended extended version, plus translations and data fixes.

Overview
