Four concealed rookie soldiers must neutralize all enemy forces and plant an X4 on the Elder monument.
If all four soldiers die or get mind controlled, the game ends.
Map[]
Map layout is mostly randomized. There are several monuments which are often aligned. The foundation around the Elder monument and 1×1 freestanding columns around the Elder monument provide full cover. Foundations around smaller monuments (if they are present) provide half cover.
War of the Chosen[]
In XCOM 2: War of the Chosen, the objective remains the same, but the site is a stage instead of an Elder statue.
Enemies[]
2-3 pods:
- One pod:
- Other pod:
- 2 ADVENT Troopers
- 1 ADVENT Officer
- Extra pod on Legend difficulty:
- 1 Sectoid
- 1 ADVENT Trooper
The patrols aren't static.

There are inaccuracies if only the latest version is of interest:
- at 8:44, 10:28 1×1 freestanding columns take two Frag Grenades. Each grenade creates fires which may cause burning.
