XCOM 2 is notorious for its challenging, resource-strapped gameplay. Whether you are playing the base game or the War of the Chosen expansion, you often find yourself needing just a few more supplies to build that crucial Proving Ground or recruit new soldiers. While the game has built-in console commands, using Cheat Engine allows for more direct manipulation of the memory values.

In this article, we'll explore the process of using Cheat Engine to modify supply values in XCOM 2, allowing players to focus on what really matters – saving humanity from the alien threat. We'll cover the basics of Cheat Engine, the steps to install and set it up for XCOM 2, and provide tips on safely using it to adjust supply values.

Before you can alter any values, you need to install the software that makes it possible.

The Steam Workshop hosts dozens of mods designed to rebalance the economy.

Locate the input field on the right side of Cheat Engine. Type your exact current number of supplies into the box. Set Scan Type to Exact Value . Set Value Type to 4 Bytes .

While mods are the preferred solution for most, offers a quick, lightweight alternative for tweaking one specific resource: Supplies .

The only risk: Setting Supplies to a negative number or NaN (Not a Number) can corrupt your save file. Always save your game before modifying memory, not after.
