The Bureau: XCOM Declassified has some DLC called Hangar 6 R&D, and it’s out now.

2K_TBXD_HANGAR6RD_EXPERIMENT

Set prior to the events of The Bureau, players take control of new protagonist Agent Nico DaSilva and his squad as they volunteer for a series of secret psycho-medical experiments to save a fellow Bureau agent infected with the “Sleepwalker” pathogen.

Hangar 6 R&D creates skin-of-your-teeth moments that challenge players’ mastery of The Bureau’s core tactical gameplay. The story-driven add-on content further explores the fascinating 1960s Cold War vibe by transporting players to an all-new clandestine location known only by Bureau agents as Hangar 6. Along with high-level squad mates and rich XP rewards, players now have access to even more dangerous weapons, such as the AK-47, and the prototype Microwave Gun that cooks enemies from the inside out. Agent DaSilva also has a new series of powers and perks based on his “plant and trigger” bomb abilities that allow players to better utilize the game’s most complex squad tactics.

Here are some more screenshots:
