Official description

One of the most popular PC titles ever is now available for the PlayStation. X-COM: UFO Defense is a strategy game that begins with aliens invading Earth. You control a team of specialists that must gather materials, build bases, and fight back against the extraterrestrial terrorists. Following the normal strategy game formula, X-COM: UFO Defense is able to remain fresh by offering new elements like ancient alien artifacts that when found give special abilities, and a highly original storyline that will keep you enthralled and engaged until the Earth is safe.
