How to pair agent abilities

XCOM Chimera Squad has you take command of 11 specialised units. Each one has a dramatically different role that you can use to your advantage in battles, and abilities that you can unlock as you use them in missions. Some agents work very well with others, allowing for combos to quickly take out enemies.

XCOM Chimera Squad character guide

OurXCOM Chimera Squad character guidewill explain all 11 agents available to you in the game, their roles in your squad, and what builds work for them the best. Feel free to head back to our mainXCOM Chimera Squad guidehub for more tips and tricks.

New agents will periodically be available to you as you progress through the campaign. You’ll get a selection of three at a time to choose from and there are a total of 11 in the game. You will begin the game with Godmother, Cherub, Terminal, and Verge already on the squad if you did the tutorial, but a free choice between any four of the agents if you didn’t do the tutorial. We are still working out the best builds for each character, but in the sections below, you will find all the known information about each agent.

All of the stats for each character below are based on the “Normal” difficulty setting and will fluctuate slightly between different difficulty settings.
