As XCOM: Enemy Unknown is based on Unreal Engine 3, it is possible to for users to mod PC versions of the game, allowing for a player to tweak (or cheat) the campaign to their liking.

Name changes[]

Accessing the XComGame.ini file can allow changes to the names of Soldier Ranks, equipment, and much more in the game.

Core modding[]

The DefaultGameCore.ini file is embedded in:
[program files]\Steam\steamapps\common\XCom-Enemy-Unknown\Binaries\Win32\XComGame.exe

By using Resource Hacker from the original site or nexusmod a user can access the settings.

NOTE: Changes to this file can cause game crashes or file corruption.
