Changes: Alien Containment

Revision as of 21:42, 8 August 2014

Alien Containment is a facility in XCOM: Enemy Unknown.

“	This facility will provide a secure environment to house the alien captives, allowing you to interrogate them in the Labs.	”
– Engineering description, XCOM: Enemy Unknown

Prerequisites: Xeno-Biology (Research)
Time to build: 7 days
Construction Cost: §85, 5 Power
Facility Maintenance: §18 per month

After building this facility, aliens stunned in the field with an Arc Thrower will be available for interrogation. Interrogating different species grants research credits which reduce the research time required for associated projects. In addition, interrogating a Sectoid Commander is required to construct the Psionic Labs when the "The Greater Good" Second Wave option is enabled.
The Alien Containment facility is only required until all interrogations have been completed, at which point it can be dismantled.
Although used for research purposes, this facility does not confer an adjacency bonus if built next to a research Laboratory.
There does not seem to be a limit to the number of alien prisoners that can be held at once, despite the appearance that there is only room for one captive.
